Question

iOS Air (13 beta) localization of names not working

Has anyone tried to release an app with differrent names lately?

For some reasons the main app name <filename> is not used when a different localization (that is not supported by the app) is used. The localizations within the app run fine, but the file name is wrong...

This was working a couple of releases before. Has anyone seen this behavior as well and maybe found a way to get the right file name displayed on the device?

Best,

Josh

If you change the localization ‘name’ section of the XML, you will have to include an entry for ‘en’ as well as the other entries you plan to include. That’s the one that gets used, the filename one is ignored.

Hello Developers,

I would like to localize the name ONLY for an app I created in the xml file.  For example, if I localize the name in English and Spanish, what name would appear for someone viewing the app in the AppStore in Italy?  Would it default to English?

As well, from Flash Pro 6, do I need to select Spanish and English in the Languages area, even if I am only localizing the name.

Thank you,

Justin

Install latest Adobe Air and create your project. Than open xml and find there simple template. You can edit manually name for each language. Users will see Italy name in Italy AppStore and Eng in English. Also this will affect on default device language. if xml will be overwritten by cs6 - just make xml readonly after you setup languages and icons
