gantt translation

Currently using Gantt 1.14.3 and tool tip doesn't translate to user language?

 

Is this a bug? Future developpement?

 

In it's current state that sadly prohibits usage for us.

 

Any workaround you guys could suggest?

Case closed. 

 

Not really sure what the right sequence would be but it works now.

 

I've : deleted and re-added the add-on, forced the language to French in Power BI settings (both Application and Model in the Global section), closed and re-open the file,

 

Thanks all!

What version of Power BI Desktop do you use? Is it Power BI Desktop for Report Server?

PBI Version : 2.63.3272.40262 64-bit (octobre, 2018)

 

I'm querying a Tabular model so no, it's not Power BI Desktop for Report Server.

That's weird...

 

Can you tell what the add-on is basing its language on?

Does it look at Windows, PowerBI, the model?

 

I tried forcing both program parameters to french (2nd image here : https://imgur.com/a/t6G6KGt ) but to no avail, the labels are still in english. The whole PBI is in French as well as Windows. I'm stumped!

I tried creating a new PBI file, re-add the Gantt add-on from the marketplace and it's now correctly localized.

 

So my 'real' problem is now : how can I force the existing one to change?

 

I think there might be something with de PBI file itself because if I create a new tab and add a new Gantt, it's still in English. Could it be because it's a file that's been created with an older version of PBI? The viz in it are still 'old school' (IE the 'vanishing' menu bar (with the drill-down and such) is at the top whereas the newest version positionning it at the bottom...)
