- WPF Panel Editors: Alchemy CATALYST supports all WPF panel types (eg Grid, Canvas, Flow, Dock and Wrap). It can also provide pixel perfect positioning of GUI elements using the mouse or by direct manipulation of attributes.
- Re-size and re-shape forms: The Alchemy WPF editor can re-size and re-shape forms depending on panel-type, translation expansion characteristics and designer meta-data within the WPF form. This helps reduce engineering and testing overheads in localization projects.
- Maintain your Layouts: Alchemy CATALYST will interpret the design meta-data within a WPF form and react accordingly within its WYSIWYG editor. For example, if the designer restricts a control so that it can only expand on the horizontal plane, the Alchemy WPF editor will enforce this.
- Translate advanced WPF properties: Many WPF forms and elements may contain advanced properties that are localizable. Alchemys WPF editor detects these and makes them available for translation within the Translator Toolbar.
- Cached 3rd Party Controls: Even if your translators do not have access to your 3rd party controls, Alchemy CATALYST will cache them automatically for you within your project TTK file. This means that everyone in your localization project works in a WYSIWYG environment reducing your engineering and testing cycle dramatically.
- Hierarchical display of inheritance information: Instantly inspect the inheritance relationship between forms in .NET application assemblies. Simply click on a form and Alchemy CATALYST will find inheritance information and display it graphically in the Project Navigator pane.
- Inheritance Types: Using Alchemy CATALYST you can quickly see the difference between Private and Public inheritance. Used in conjunction with the .NET Inheritance View, it is relatively simple to find the original definition of inherited objects within a large .NET application.
