Description 

Automatically query repository  

Automatically populates resource modules with translations for any strings that have matches in the Translation Repository, each time your assemblies are updated.
If only one match for a string is found in the Translation Repository, that translated string is copied to the resource modules project. If more than one match is found, the first matching translation in the Repository is copied to the assembly. You can change this behavior by choosing ToolsTranslation Tools Options, clicking the Repository tab, then changing the Multiple Find Action setting.  

Automatically compile projects  

Compiles projects, without asking first, whenever required by the translation tools (for example, when running the Satellite Assembly Wizard).  

Show Translation Manager after wizard  

Opens the Translation Manager automatically after running the Satellite Assembly Wizard or Resource DLL Wizard unless one of the resource module projects is active in the Project Manager when you use the wizard.  

Automatically quote strings  

Supplies required quotation marks around translated strings, unless the strings already contain apostrophes, quotation marks, or control characters (such as #13).  

Use 'Newly Translated' Status  

When a string is manually translated, or automatically translated from the Translation Repository, the status of the string is changed Newly Translated instead of Translated. This status is used to determine items which are translated in current translation.  

Automatically save files  

Saves the current project, without asking first, whenever appropriate (for example, before closing the Translation Manager or running the Satellite Assembly Wizard or Resource DLL Wizard).  

Hide empty items  

Hides files that do not contain translation items, such as .nfn and .resN files, in the Workspace tab tree view of the Translation Manager. This can improve performance when processing many files, some of which are empty, with the Add strings to repository or Get strings from repository commands.  

External editor  

Indicates the name of the editor to use when using an external editor in the Translation Manager, for example, notepad.exe.
