Hi,

Is there a way of changing Chrome's language? I remember we could change that in the preferences, but it now seems we can only change web content language. I'm using the latest Linux's dev channel.
I want this to test all locales are working correctly.

Thanks for your help.

Marcos.

I don't think you can change the language by any Chrome API.
Maybe you can take a look at "Google Mail Checker Plus", it lets you
to change the language of the extension.

I assume you do not mean changing the language through extension APIs and I assume you mean changing the user interface of Chrome.
So, here it goes.
Wrench menu-->Options\Settings\Preferences-->"Change font and language settings" button-->"Languages" tab-->At the bottom, "Google Chrome language", select a language.
Or, start Chrome with the following flag -
--lang=fr
(For French, for example.)
