Translation text elements doesnt work on app startup

Posted on by 2

Hi all. In my first application i use a translation component with the following translations on its onReset Method:

 

 

 

Set(
 varTranslations,
 Table(
 {
 Language: "en-us",
 Labels: {
 Title: "UI Tips for building canvas apps",
 JobTitle: "Power Platform Specialist"
 }
 },
 {
 Language: "de",
 Labels: {
 Title: "Dicas de UI para construir canvas apps",
 JobTitle: "Especialista de Power Platform"
 }
 }
 )
 )

 

 

 

(i followed all the steps of the official docs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/canvas-apps/multi-language-apps)

 

I also use the toggle Component to toggle between english and german. As soon as i use the toggler for the first time my text labels "Title" and "JobTitle" appear in the desired language. But at the initial startup of the app they are both not shown. What am i missing here? If you have a solution please remember: I am very new to Power apps 🙂

Thank you in advance!

    I think I had same issue wen following that tutorial. I think I resolved it with setting up default value for varLanguage at App OnStart:

     

    Set(
       varCurrentLanguage,
       Coalesce(
           Lower(Language()),
           "en-us"
       )
    );
