User-Facing Strings

[clevername27]

Does anyone know the list of source-code files that have user-facing strings (e.g., "The Sample directory could not be located.")? Thank you.

@clevername27 They're all over the place. I use a multi-file text search when I need to find one.

[clevername27]

@d-healey Thank you - yes, the same. But how do you know what to search for?

[d.healey]

@clevername27 If I see some text in the HISE UI then I search for it.

[clevername27]

@d-healey Ha, right but - that only tells me about the string literals I know about. I'm interested in the ones I don't know about, so I can see every possible message that a user will see.

String literals are bad. I've suggested moving to a file as a "feature", and offered to help.

I don't think there is a convenient way to locate them as they are not in a single file. Having them in a single location would be nice, and it would allow for HISE to be translated into other languages quite easily.
