interface language #20

Closed shrddr closed 2 years ago

shrddr commented 2 years ago

Title: interface language

# Files: don't know

# Description:

The original OSM iD editor is using the preferred language specified in OSM profile. The RapiD editor is not using that setting; it has autodetected some other language which I would like to change. How do I do that? My OS and browser are also set to English and still RapiD UI is not in English.

Hey @shrddr - I believe what RapiD does is look through all the languages supported by your browser until it finds one that we have a language pack for:

https://github.com/facebookincubator/RapiD/blob/7ec417cb35877fd1abcadf6ef79442eadc1a0c93/modules/util/detect.js#L89-L98

I found this site which contains instructions on how to change the languages supported in any of the main web browsers.

Thanks, I needed to change the order of supported languages in chrome settings
