User Interface Language - Preference item missing!

jjenkov · 07-01-2012, 02:40 PM

In the user manual it says that it is possible to change the user interface language. However, when I go into that preferences menu point, it is only possible to change the language of the meta data editor. Not the user interface. Any idea what is wrong? I just downloaded the latest version and installed on a Win 7, 64 bit. I have tried both with the 64 bit version of Sigil, and the 32 bit version. The same for both versions.

This is not a huge problem, but still annoying!

What version of Sigil are you using? I believe that the manual refers to the new BETA version (the 0.5.9 branch) and not the older 0.5.3 branch.

The old manual was waaaaay, way outdated, and version 6 was looming, so I can't blame anyone for not putting in the time to update the manual to 0.5.3 since it would be relatively short-lived.

Okay, so I am using version 0.5.3 ... maybe I should upgrade. Is the new version already available? Or should I just wait for the 0.6.0 ?

New version is not available. Latest beta was pulled from site because they had gathered enough information about what was wrong and about what people wanted.

It could be a while, since half the people said they wanted one thing and the other half said they wanted another.
