Localizable forms in C# or How to translate your C# application in the right way


As my first post I will try to give some tips of how to use localizable forms in C#, this is particularly useful if you want to give the user the option to select multiple languages in your application.
Visual Studio gives you some help to you in this task by letting you use the Language property of a given Form. Setting this option to a language different from default let you edit all the strings in your form and Visual Studio automatically creates a .resx file with the strings that you translated. This method allows you to change the position and size of the components in the Form (because phrases have different sizes in different languages), but unfortunately it not allows you to add or remove any of the components in the Form.

Hello World !

That's it, I finally take courage to start a technology blog to share the things that I know and the ones that I'm constantly learning. Also I think this is a great opportunity to learn new things and to make some new friends.

As a Brazilian my mother language in Portuguese (no, we don't speak Spanish here :S ) but I will write here only in English because technology speaks English. But if you are a friend that speaks "minha lingua", feel free to chat :D (I also study German, so maybe I can understand if you say something "auf Deustch").

As I'm always involved in many projects and don't have that many time to dedicate, but I will try to make the most posts that I can.


I'm not sure about what will be my first post, but I try to find some interesting to show to you.


Keep coding .... until it's done.
