BamlLocalizableResource.Readable Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.Windows.Markup.Localizer

Assembly:

PresentationFramework.dll

Gets or sets whether the resource is visible for translation.

public:
 property bool Readable { bool get(); void set(bool value); };

public bool Readable { get; set; }

member this.Readable : bool with get, set

Public Property Readable As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

true if the resource is visible for translation; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The Readable value serves as a recommendation to the localizer about whether the content of the localizable resource can be directly translated as plain strings.

For example, when the string "Red" is used as a UI string, it can be directly translated to another language. In this case the Readable property should be set to true.

When the string "Red" is used as a predefined color value of a Brush, it cannot be translated. Therefore the Readable property should be set to false.
