Question Get string from Localize table by script

Hello,

I'm trying to write a script that get the localized string.

I'm trying to use
UnityEngine.Localization.Settings.LocalizationSettings.StringDatabase.GetLocalizedStringAsync(table, key)

but I don't know how to wait response and return the string.

Could you help me?

 

Yes,

I tried this code

Code (CSharp):

1. var stringOperation = LocalizationSettings.StringDatabase.GetLocalizedStringAsync("My String", new object[] { 123 });
2.     stringOperation.Completed += s =>
3.     {
4.         // Example output: "The value is 123"
5.         Debug.Log(s.Result);
6.     };
7.  

But s.Result is always empty string.

 

Thanks for your help but nothing works for me.
I'm going crazy

I think there is a problem with the table loading and also because have to table.

I'll try to explain.

If the gameobject where I want to load my translations is active when I start the "game" I don't have any value. I got empty string.

If the gameobject is active later after starting the game it's ok for my first table named "Localization Table". But if I tried to get a value into my second table named "StrumPatternTable" I got no translation found for ... in StrumPatternTable.

So I think I have two problems :
1. My Localization tables are not loaded yet when I asked
2. My second table is not recognized

Here is my entire code where I tried to load a collection within a dropdown :
I'm really new with Unity

Thanks I'll tried.

But first, is there something to call to be sure Localization tables are loaded at start?

 

Yes I see this documentation on preloading but I don't have this option.

I have version 1.3.2 of Localization. I think this option have to be there but I don't have the right part of the windows.

 

OK thanks, it seems to work now.
I don't know what happens before because I do that at first.

Now, I have to reload those values when users change language from the UI. I don't know how

 

oH yes it works
Thank you!

I can now publish my app in english too
