By default the programs uses the ProcessorCount to determine the maximum threads to use. This options allows the end user to override that option. The minimum value is 4, and the maximum value is 400.
The translation length is used when the program translates many files in a single translation request. This happens if there are many files (over 100), or if the user selects option to translate many files per request.
This value is set to 10000 by default. The minimum value is 255, and the maximum value is 10,000.
This options determines if one file is used per translation request, or if many files are used per translation request. The following are the possible options to select from the combobox window.
-
[Auto]
This is the default option. It automatically sets the best method depending on the totoal number of files to check for translation and the maximum thread settings. -
[OnePerFile]
Only one file is sent per translation request. This is the preferred option if the files have different languages. -
[Many]
Multiple files are sent per translation request. This is the perferred option if the files are all in either the source language or the target language.
This setting is an ISO 639-1 two letter code. By default, the target language is set to the operating system language settings. (CurrentCulture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName)
Use this option to override the target language. See ISO 639-1 link to get desired language code.
This is empty by default. When this value is empty, the translation works in "Auto" mode, which lets the translator determine the source language.
For most use cases, this value should be left empty. If populated, use ISO 639-1 link to get desired language code.
The list view has multiple columns, and the list can be sorted by any column by clicking on the column header.
