Globalization in Gantt control

Localization
The Localization library allows you to localize default text content of the Gantt. The Gantt component has static text on some features (like toolbar area text, etc.) that can be changed to other cultures (Arabic, Deutsch, French, etc.) by defining the locale value and translation object.
The following list of properties and its values are used in the Gantt.
| Locale key words | Text |
|---|---|
| emptyRecord | No records to display |
| id | ID |
| name | Name |
| startDate | Start Date |
| endDate | End Date |
| duration | Duration |
| progress | Progress |
| dependency | Dependency |
| notes | Notes |
| baselineStartDate | Baseline Start Date |
| baselineEndDate | Baseline End Date |

Loading translations
To load translation object in an application use load function of L10n class.
The below example demonstrates the Gantt in Deutsch culture.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name(
"TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress").Child("SubTasks")).Locale("de-DE").Render()
<script>
ej.base.L10n.load({
'de-DE': {
'gantt': {
"id": "Ich würde",
"name": "Name",
"startDate": "Anfangsdatum",
"duration": "Dauer",
"progress": "Fortschritt",
}
}
});
</script>public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}Internationalization
The Internationalization library is used to globalize number, date, and time values in gantt component.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").TaskFields(ts =>
ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress"
).Child("SubTasks")).Locale("de-DE").Render()
<script>
ej.base.L10n.load({
'de-DE': {
'gantt': {
"id": "Ich würde",
"name": "Name",
"startDate": "Anfangsdatum",
"duration": "Dauer",
"progress": "Fortschritt",
}
}
});
loadCultureFiles('de-DE');
function loadCultureFiles(name) {
var files = ['ca-gregorian.json', 'numbers.json'];
var loader = ej.base.loadCldr;
var loadCulture = function (prop) {
var val, ajax;
if (files[prop] === 'numberingSystems.json') {
ajax = new ej.base.Ajax(location.origin + '/../Scripts/cldr-data/supplemental/' + files[prop], 'GET', false);
} else {
ajax = new ej.base.Ajax(location.origin + '/../Scripts/cldr-data/main/' + name + '/' + files[prop], 'GET', false);
}
ajax.onSuccess = function (value) {
val = value;
};
ajax.send();
loader(JSON.parse(val));
};
for (var prop = 0; prop < files.length; prop++) {
loadCulture(prop);
}
}
</script>public IActionResult Index()
{
ViewBag.DataSource = GanttData.ProjectNewData();
return View();
}NOTE
Right to left (RTL)
RTL provides an option to switch the text direction and layout of the Gantt component from right to left. It improves the user experiences and accessibility for users who use right-to-left languages (Arabic, Urdu, etc.). To enable RTL Gantt, set the EnableRtl to true.
@Html.EJS().Gantt("Gantt").DataSource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.DataSource).Height("450px").Toolbar(new List<string>()
{"CollapseAll", "ExpandAll" }).TaskFields(ts => ts.Id("TaskId").Name("TaskName").StartDate("StartDate").EndDate("EndDate").Duration("Duration").Progress("Progress"
).Child("SubTasks")).Locale("ar-AE").EnableRtl(true).Render()
<script>
