  • Extended Translations: New property “ExtendedTranslations” is introduced for all TsiCustomLang’s descendants. Using this property you can internationationalize not only strings but any properties of components that can affect an application’s appearance after language switching, for example, a label’s width and height now may have differenent values for different languages.
