How to change the language in the Dashboard and Web Editor
The language in your Web Editor or Dashboard will already automatically adjust to the browser's set language (English, German, Japanese or Spanish). Only if you prefer having a different language than the set in the browser settings, you need to manually adjust this.
It is now possible to individually change the language in our browser solutions with a few simple steps.
NOTE: The dashboard and editor can only be set to English (default setting), German, Japanese or Spanish.
Setting the language for the Dashboard and the Web Editor needs to be done individually but generally work the same way:
Setting the language in the Dashboard
Open the Company Dashboard in your web browser (preferably Google Chrome).
Or, log in on to HoloBuilder EU to access the EU servers.
Log in with your HoloBuilder access data.
On the HoloBuilder Dashboard, switch to your user profile.
Hover over or click the menu with the currently selected language in the upper right corner (next to the 'Sign out' option).
Select the language you want to switch to.
Your dashboard will immediately change to the newly selected language setting.
Setting the language in the Web Editor
1. Open the Web Editor in your web browser (preferably Google Chrome). You can
access the Web Editor via a direct link to the project or from the dashboard.
2. Log in with your HoloBuilder access data if you are not yet logged in.
3. On the Web Editor, you will see the dropdown in the upper right corner to choose
the language.
Click on the button once to see the possible languages.
