Commented Issue: Toggleswitch localization [10164]

$

0
The toggleswitch takes its 'On' and 'Off' strings from a non-localized resource. Please make use of ControlResources.On and ControlResources.Off inside OffOnConverter.cs and localize them. For applications which change language dynamically, you might want to set SetDefaultContent as public.

Ok, this issue was fixed but when? Is this fix included in "Oct11" edition of the WP7 Toolkit?


Using "Windows Phone Toolkit Aug 2011 in depth-v1.pdf" as documentation reference and it isn't helpful according to the "how to localize ToogleSwitch" question.

What is the best way doing so?

e.g. found some other sources but it seems it isn't clear to the community how to localize ToggleSwitch correctly:

http://www.csharpblog.co.cc/2011/09/localize-toggleswitch-in-silverlight.html

The only thing which is a bit strange for me:
ControlResources.de-DE.resx

Which means, that it is "limited" to Germany. But we in Austria (Österreich) and those which come from Switzerland are speaking German.

That is why I am using Strings.de.resx as my localization for DACH (Deutschland, Austria, Switzerland)

So, why not:
ControlResources.de.resx

If there are differences they can be handled this way anyway:
ControlResources.de.resx
ControlResources.de-DE.resx
ControlResources.de-AT.resx
ControlResources.de-CH.resx

Anyway, how to localize ToggleSwitch "correctly" (without coding effort!)?

Thanks a lot for putting me to the right direction!
