Suggestion: links to other languages in help file

Post by *gmb »

If there's help file in language which application uses, tap on "Help (html)" opens help in respective language.
If there's no help file in language which application uses, tap on "Help (html)" opens help in English.

If for example some Slovak, who easier reads Czech than English, is using Slovak localization and tap on "Help (html)", he will get help in English. And he will never know that help file in Czech language exists.

If let's say, someone from Switzerland speaks French and is using French localization, and he knows German better than English, he cannot access help file in German unless he changes the application language.

My suggestion is to put links to other languages in help file, like this:

Code: Select all

<p style="text-align: right; margin-right: 1.5em; word-spacing: 1.5em;">
<a href="file:///android_asset/help_cs.htm">CS</a>
<a href="file:///android_asset/help_de.htm">DE</a>
<a href="file:///android_asset/help_es.htm">ES</a>
<a href="file:///android_asset/help_ru.htm">RU</a>
<a href="file:///android_asset/help_uk.htm">UK</a>
</p>
Now all other languages are just one tap away!
