Hilmar Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Hello, Although German is my native language, I prefer the English version of Affinity-Photo. I use tutorials and videos in both English and German. It happens to me that I don't always know/understand the equivalent term/expression of the other language. My question: Is there somewhere a cross-reference/table for the specific terms used in Affinity-Photo for German/English? Many thanks Hilmar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, Hilmar. I've never seen anything exactly like that. If anyone has developed one I would expect to find it somewhere in the Resources forum. Here's a search for Resources forum topics that mention German; perhaps something there will help: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/search/&q=German&quick=1&type=forums_topic&nodes=11 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilmar Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 Hi Walt! Thanks for the link. Since I couldn't find anything suitable, I tried myself to do some improvisation with the language settings A first result is attached. -- Hilmar PS: Could not upload due to "Sorry, an unknown server error occurred when uploading this file.

Komatös Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) Hallo @Hilmar, ich hadere auch mit den englischen Begriffen. Ich behelfe mir dann immer damit, dass ich die Beta Version der Programme in englischer Sprache benutze um Beispieldateien zu erstellen und zu verwenden, die ich dann in der der Retail Version mit deutschen UI öffne und weiterbearbeite. Das ist zwar massiv umständlich, aber ich lerne damit sehr schnell Edited February 18, 2022 by Komatös walt.farrell 1 Quote AMD Ryzen 7 5700X | INTEL Arc A770 LE 16 GB | 32 GB DDR4 3200MHz | Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (22631.3296) AMD A10-9600P | dGPU R7 M340 (2 GB) | 8 GB DDR4 2133 MHz | Windows 10 Home 22H2 (1945.3803) Affinity Suite V 2.4 & Beta 2.(latest) Better translations with: https://www.deepl.com/translator Interested in a robust (selfhosted) PDF Solution?

NOPE! So your best friend here is, to (re)use the Affinity Photo Online help files contents. And there then to switch between the german/english language for several used terms (Begrifflichkeiten) & explanations via the bottom languages choose toggle.

Or open two browser tabs, one in German and one in English. You could even open two browser windows and position them side-by-side with both visible, one German and one English.
