    @Pablo-J.-Rogina I want to translate from italian to english, so how must i write in .pro?
    and an other question, if I write manually,like this..

    void MainWindow::on_Traduzione_Inglese_clicked()
    {
        qApp->installTranslator(&Lingua_Italiana);
        ui->Traduzione_Italiano->setDisabled(false);
        // if(ui->info->text=="CONF. IN CARICAMENTO")
        if(ui->Info->text()=="CONF. IN CARICAMENTO")
    
            ui->Info->setText("cONF..lOADING");
    }
    
    

    in Info doesn't wtite conf loading..because installTranslaton block this I think

        Hi
        The ts files can be named anything.
        it is just a normal convention to name them
        appname_languagecode.ts
        as then the filename can be constructed based on locale
        But yes, your English language could be
        TRANSLATIONS = yourApp_en.ts
        and you simply used that name to load it.

            than you didn‘t read carefully enough the docs even have an example
            https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtlinguist-hellotr-example.html

            a compileable one.

              @J.Hilk yes, I read..
              Tries to load a file called hellotr_la.qm (the .qm file extension is implicit) that contains Latin translations for the source texts used in the program. No error will occur if the file is not found.

              but I would like see an exaple of file ts to see how I must write it

                Hi
                No, the translation is not automatic.
                You use lupdate to extract the texts to the TS
                Then qt linguist to open and help translate
                then qt linguist can compile the ts to qm
                and you load the qm version to translate the app.

                But try to do the sample @J-Hilk links.
                Its very basic and shows the procedure very well.

                    You don't write the ts file your self. that part is from extracting the texts with the tool

                            You can update it.
                            Just like how you created it first time.
                            It will then add new texts to the file.

                                  Only when you call setText , new text can be used if you loaded a installTranslator
                                  in the mean time.

                                      Im not sure what you are doing.
                                      After you loaded a new translator.
                                      You must call setText on all Labels etc. to have them show translated text.

                                          An alternative to fiddling around changing language at runtime.
                                          You could allow the user to select the language. save the selection to a file
                                          and load that in main. when app starts.
                                          Then to use new language, all you have to do is restart app.
