Hi all, I found the answer for my problem.
My first post about to switch the language was http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg05846.html. Will Scheidegger pointed me to the right way to switch the language in the authoring environment (Thanks). The problem now was, that I forgot to change the language back to "en" in Configuration -> i18n -> language -> de. That's why I got the problems with the ???. So I asking myself: 1. Why are not all words (headlines, text,...) from the GUI in the language properties files? 2. Why can I change the language in Configuration -> i18n -> language to German, when its not working when I set a user language to German as well?
