  • 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.

  • Template.xml
