figure as "figura"

figure as "figura"

[andrea valle]

Dear all,
using \placefigure I obtain in output the caption with "Figure x. etc"
I'm currently writing in Italian, so I need to have  "Figura" in place 
of "Figure".
What have I to do?

Thanks a lot

You'll have to tell ConTeXt to use the Italian glossary instead (and hope it's
ok...) so the labeltexts (and hyphenation) gets fixed.

This is how I do it for our Spanish manual and how I adjusted the few labeltexts
our translator didn't like; these go into the setup section of the file, before
\starttext.

% Language specific settings for the Spanish version

%Uses the Spanish hyphenation module and labeltexts
\mainlanguage[es]

% Changes the default label Illustraciòn to Figura
% as that's the term the translators preferred
% Note the space after the text!
\setuplabeltext[es][figure=Figura ]
\setuplabeltext[es][see=ver ]


I don't *know* for sure, but my somewhat educated guess is that

\mainlanguage[it]

would be the key to success for you.

See the "big manual" (ConTeXt the manual), pages 131-132 for more information.


(Hmm... if this isn't in the wiki yet, it should probably go there. I can do a
bit later...)

Thanks Mari,
Shame on me, I supposed that there was no Italian glossary.

In any case, you suggestion works and it's precious.

Best
