Localization XML File

Purpose

You can use the Localization XML file to customize the appearance of an item name on the model. It enables you to perform the following tasks:

  • Provide abbreviations of item names. For example, “Application Launch Services" can appear as "App. Launch Services”.

  • Include special characters in names, such as soft hyphens. For example, "Graphics Device Interface" can appear as "Graphics Dev­ice Interface". This allows the word to split across multiple lines on the diagram if it is needed.

  • Provide a localized translation of a word. For example, "Device Provisioning" can appear as "端末管理".

Syntax
