Translations Main Page

The main page for translations gives you control over your multilingual projects. The Translations page includes two grids, Packages and Branches. Functionally, the grids do the same things, but they each provide a different way to view the translation project. Which grid you work with depends on personal preference.

When you create a translation package it can contain one or many branches depending on the number of languages selected for translation. Every branch that displays in the Branches grid has a unique language associated with it.

Since the Translations page is part of Central's projects you can easily access other features such as project files, checklists, and builds.

Example Packages vs. Branches

You create four translation packages where each one includes five different languages for translation. In Packages, the grid groups target languages with a particular package. In Branches, the grid lists all the translation branches individually. In this case, 20 branches can be a lot to sift through, so it might be cleaner to manage them as packages.
