We have built a multilanguage module using language tables and a lang.key. For the key and all the text fields we use global fields. Making the text fields calculation fields we can switch between several languages in one layout. So far so good!

[color:red]The problem is when we go in find mode, then we became a empty layout probably due to the fact that it’s not possible to calculate the global fields anymore :)

Question : Is it possible to show the contents of a related and/or calculating global, field in find mode :B

As you have discovered, calculations do not display in Find mode. Use text fields with auto-entered calculated values and the lookup funciton instead as they are static text. A change in the key field will trigger the new calculated values.
