Hello,
I bought progeCAD a couple of days ago, I used the trial and was happy with it. Since I am italian, I'd like to know if it is possible to change the language of the menu. I have already assigned aliases to the commands, but I'd like to change the menus as well.
Is it possible?
Thanks

Each version of the software has the language hard-coded into the program binaries. Other language versions like Italian need to be downloaded and licensed separately.

The problem is the price. There is a big difference. The Italian full version is 510Euro, upgrade from English will cost about 330Euro if you really want to change.

You can edit the menus yourself, but they will still need to correspond to English commands in progeCAD. look for the .mnu files in your progeCAD installation directory.

Hello,
since I have upgraded from 08 to 09, I tried the same trick (copy the Ourbase.mnu file) from the italian language to the english one, unfortunatly it seems its not working anymore...is there something else I might try?
Thanks
