Upcoming Version 4.0.z (December 2025)

Figma2Dev

Localyzer Figma plugin has been allowing translation and viewing translated designs in Figma.

In this release, we are adding the ability to generate developer resource files, source and/or target files - e.g. JSON, resx, properties, etc. - from a Figma design on-boarded with Localyzer using the Localyzer Figma Plugin.

  • Generate the keys to be used by developers and view them in Figma [9133, 9167, 9129 ]
  • Generate the developer resource files [8949, 9128,9157, 9152, 9153, 9154, 9110]
  • Configure Figma commit messages [9073]

Figma enhancements:

Prompting for LLM

Localyzer enables translation via an MT, a TMS, or directly via an LLM. To better leverage TMS using LLMs or LLMs, Localyzer provides the ability to prompt the GenAI.

  • Use Context (images) to prompt for translation [9102, 9121, 9122,9082, 9179]
  • Configure, set prompt for translation [9163, 9058, 9059, 9060, 9061, 9165]
  • Token count [9150]
  • Internal setting [9140, 9088]
  • TMS with PXML and LLM Connection Configuration [9057, 9141, 9161, 9162, 9164, 9184, 9185]
  • Prompt for LLM and PXML project [9163, 9164, 9165 9171,9172, 9173, 9186, 9189]

    • the Figma context
    • the screenshot association

LocalyzerQA V 1.7.3

  • LocalyzerQA now shows the actual string from the file in the repository on 'Error: Not Found', so it's easier to see how to correct it. [8889, 8890, 8999]

Command Center version 3.0.19 (March 2025)

TMS Integration

  • TSS Custom Integration [8837]
    • A customer request to add a custom integration (TSS) to their translation system with a new internal system handling translations (TI)

    • Reference material in repositories can be passed to the translation projects. Reference material are specified in the project configuration.

New: Download/Upload Feature

This feature allows for a more manual process, for instance if a TMS cannot return translated files via the normal integration, for whatever reason. It allows the translation without a full TMS, and some fast corrections without going back to an LSP.

Note: UI Icon changes to better reflect action on prep kits and other actions on the overall project, in particular with the addition of this feature.

New: Moving Command Center from a non SSO to an SSO System

  • New easy to use scripts have been added to help move Command Center over to SSO.

New: Create Baseline Visibility

Starting with this release, the Create Baseline button only shows up when baselining might be necessary. Before tracking file via baselining, please make sure that the Localyzer project configuration is correct: One way is to Edit the project and click the validate button. Another way could be to look at the Localyzer page and/or the string manager. See: Baseline

  • Show example XML file: [8893] New log output to verify if the correct xmlParser.xml system file is used.
  • Reduce calls to XTM: [8897] For improved security, allows for connection with less privileges, to the detriment of validation of template and customer
  • Handle properties keys with \:, \= [8898] : Typically, a properties key value pair separator is either : or =. If it has a \= or \: in the key, it must not be construed as a separator.
  • Minor bug fixes [8868, 8883, 8879, 8869, 8865, 8876, 8850, 8867]

Other case when translation did not make it to the TMS are for example network glitches or changes in the TMS.
