Finding Specific User Interface Text

PolicyTech provides the following tools to help find text strings that appear in the user interface.

Navigation

Navigate through the list by scrolling and moving from page to page. To display a different number of text strings per page, click Display Options, and then click to display the Entries Per Page list. Click a number in the list, and then click Close.

Area Filters

All text strings are listed by default. To show only those text strings for a specific user interface area, in the Area Filter tree, find and click that area.

Important:

If you have been making changes to text strings in one area, click Save before switching to another area.
A text string may be listed in multiple areas. Changes made to a text string in one area will be reflected it in all areas in which that text string is listed.

"Show" Filters

In the Show list, do one of the following:

Click Untranslated to filter out all but those text strings whose corresponding Translated Text boxes are empty.
Click System Text Modified Since Last Version to see only those default (original PolicyTech) text strings that were modified or added in the current PolicyTech version.
Click All to reset the Show filter (the Area Filter is not affected).

Search

You can search for a specific text string in either the Current Default Text (the original text provided by PolicyTech) or in Translated Text (new text added in the box to the right of the default text).
