Remarks

The DevExpress WPF Spreadsheet control uses the standard localization mechanism from the .NET Framework—Satellite Resource Assemblies (libraries that contain translated resources). Satellite assemblies for the following languages are included in the DevExpress Unified Component Installer and available in the DevExpress NuGet Gallery:

  • German
  • Spanish
  • Japanese

Use the DevExpress Localization Service to obtain satellite assemblies for other cultures. Add translations for strings that correspond to function names, download the modified satellite assemblies, and include them in your project. If you are new to our Localization Service, refer to the following help topic for assistance: Localizing WPF Controls with Satellite Resource Assemblies.

After you add localization resources to your application, use the SpreadsheetControl.Options.Culture property to set the control’s culture. If satellite assemblies for this culture are not found, the invariant (English) culture is used.
