Hi Guys,

I was wonder if there is any way to change the calendar’s language. I would like to change the month and the days of the week from English to Spanish.

Thanks  
Manuel

Localization of the calendar component should be available for Ignition 7.7.

I had the same problem some time ago and made a module with a localized calendar: [http://www.inductiveautomation.com/forum/download/file.php?id=2509](http://www.inductiveautomation.com/forum/download/file.php?id=2509).  
Feel free to use it till 7.7 is available.

You can find a link to the Ignition Module SDK on the downloads page of the Inductive Automation website. There is a programmers guide within the .zip file that will get you started.

You can find the source for this module on [github](https://github.com/chi-Ignition/chi-calendar).  
Please note that i use maven for building Ignition modules, so if you never worked with Eclipse, Maven or Git this is maybe not the best place to start. However, feel free to explore the source there.
