# Language Switch

ONEWEB provides **multi‑language support** across its designers to improve usability for global and regionally distributed development teams.\
This capability allows developers to work with Microflow Designer in a **localized user interface**, enhancing readability and reducing friction caused by language barriers.

Currently, **Microflow Designer** supports the following languages:

* **English**
* **Thai**
* **Japanese**

Users can switch the designer language at any time, and the interface updates **immediately without reload or redeployment**.

### Purpose of Language Switch

The Language Switch feature is designed to:

* Allow users to work in their **preferred language**
* Improve comprehension of UI labels, menus, and configuration panels
* Support **multi‑regional and multilingual development teams**
* Reduce interpretation errors caused by unfamiliar terminology

Language switching affects **designer UI text only** and does **not** alter Microflow definitions, logic, or configuration.

***

### Language Switching Behavior

Microflow Designer allows users to change the interface language dynamically during their session.

From a system perspective:

* The language can be changed **at runtime**
* The UI updates instantly after selection
* No page refresh or restart is required

This ensures a seamless developer experience when working in multilingual environments.

***

### Supported Language Options

After selecting a language, the Microflow Designer interface updates accordingly while preserving all Microflow content.

Examples of localized UI include:

* English interface
* Japanese interface (localized labels and menus)
* Thai interface

Localization applies uniformly across:

* Menus
* Toolbars
* Configuration panels
* System messages

***

### Important Notes

* Language switching affects **UI text only**
* Microflow names, Business Objects, parameters, and logic remain unchanged
* Language preference can be changed at any time during use
* No re‑deployment or configuration refresh is required

This design ensures that localization improves usability without impacting application behavior.

***

### Summary

The **Language Switch** feature in ONEWEB enhances developer productivity by enabling **Microflow Designer** to be used in multiple languages.

With this feature, users can:

* Switch between **English, Thai, and Japanese**
* Work more comfortably in localized UI environments
* Support collaboration across global teams

Language Switch improves usability and accessibility while preserving the consistency and integrity of Microflow logic, making it a valuable productivity feature within **Microflow Designer**.
