- In English, there is only one gender, called neutral in the English templates. In languages other than English, you may need to use multiple genders. For example, in English, a pushbutton and a radiobutton.
- To create and use genders, follow these basic steps:
- Create the gender: When you create a new gender, it is copied from an existing gender of your choice.
- Edit the class to use the appropriate gender: After you have created the genders as necessary, you must assign the correct gender to the class.
- Edit the text for the events: Edit the text to be gender-appropriate for the events in a class. If the event uses the default template, then all events that use the default template for that gender are also updated.
- To create a new gender:
- In the Template Editor, open the
- Template.xml
- In the Gender toolpane, right-click the gender you want to copy to create a new gender.
