Does the existing Ignition Translation Manager automatically detect the language of text added by end users in Ignition Perspective clients, similar to how Google Translate works?

After the application is released, developers typically have limited interaction with it. However, end users might add new tasks directly within the Perspective clients, including task names and comments. Ideally, these newly added texts should be automatically translated into different languages without requiring developer intervention. So any available alternatives or solutions?

No, if you want to translate user entry, you need to write that code yourself.

I have a resource that search for defined terms in a perspective project and make it easier to create bulk translation key. Maybe this is a good starting point to link to a cloud translator for automatic translation (This is on my to do list for quite some time but did find the correct option for automatic translation)
