In this episode, Bill, Dana, and Carl chat with Glynnis Patterson, Director – Software Development and David Haynes, Director – Special Projects, both from Ideate Software. We talk specifically about their latest special project, translating their software into 5 different languages, and the unique challenges this produced along with the solutions. Also, be sure to stick around after the episode for an interesting squirrel (out-take) on the joys of video editing.David HaynesGlynnis Patterson https://bimthoughts.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/E2117.mp3 | Open Player in New WindowShow NotesEpisode Hashtag: #LocalizationHere is where you can find David, Glynnis and Ideate Software on the World Wide Web:Website: Ideate SoftwareLinkedIn: Ideate SoftwareLinkedIn: David HaynesLinkedIn: Glynnis PattersonTwitter: @IdeateSoftwareTwitter: @dhaynestechTwitter: @GVPinNJYouTube: Ideate SoftwareThe 5 languages Ideate Software is translating their software into are:FrenchSpanishGermanJapaneseChinese SimplifiedCheck out all Ideate Software’s great products.Ideate StyleManagerIdeate BIMlinkIdeate ExplorerIdeate StickyIdeateAppsDana’s go-to Ideate resource.Ideate Software Video LibraryBe sure to check out all the great Ideate Software Videos, not on the Pinnacle Series platform from Eagle Point Software.Do you want to take the same challenge that Glynnis gave us at BIMThoughts before the interview?Pick your Revit desktop shortcut and make a copy.Right-click on that copy and pick Properties to edit that Target value.The last part of the target is language.
