Solavel Docs

Languages, RTL and dark mode

Last updated

Solavel works in English and Arabic across all apps, and the portal and SolaCount support nine more languages. In Arabic and Urdu, layouts mirror right-to-left. Every app also has a light and a dark theme.

Languages by app

App Languages How to switch
Solavel portal English, العربية, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, Русский, Türkçe, اردو, 中文 Globe button in the top bar → pick a language (flag + name). Also Account Settings → Preferences → Preferred language, which lists all 11 languages (since 10 October 2026; before that only English and Arabic were offered there).
SolaCount Same 11 languages Language menu in SolaCount's top bar / user menu. The public site solacount.com also has a flag menu (?lang=).
SolaStock English, Arabic عربي / EN toggle in the top bar (the page reloads).
SolaHR English, Arabic Globe link in the top bar.
SolaProjects English, Arabic Globe button in the top bar (it reads العربية or English; on phones it is inside the account menu). It reloads the same page in the other language. It opens in the language saved on your account when you arrive from Solavel.
Sign-in, invitation and onboarding pages English, Arabic (plus the portal languages where offered) Language control on the page.

Your choice is remembered in your browser (for up to a year, shared across solavel.com pages). Preferred language in Account Settings also saves it to your account, so it is used when you sign in on another browser or device. Switching keeps you on the same page.

Languages an app does not have. If your preferred language is, say, Français, the portal shows French, while SolaProjects, SolaStock and SolaHR (English and Arabic only) show English; SolaCount has French in its own language menu. Nothing is lost or broken; set the app's own English/Arabic button if you prefer Arabic there. Opening an app again from Workspace Home applies your saved account language where the app supports it; a language you pick inside an app is a session choice.

Confirmations, outcome notices and validation messages use the shared feedback layer, so they appear in your language in every app (Arabic and English fully). Some app-specific labels may still show in English in the less common languages. Report them through Reports in the portal.

Right-to-left (Arabic and Urdu)

When an RTL language is active:

  • The sidebar moves to the right, and drawers open from the right.
  • Text, tables and forms align right. Back/forward arrows flip.
  • Row-action menus are measured and kept on screen in both directions.
  • Numbers, amounts, email addresses, document numbers and phone numbers stay left-to-right inside RTL text, so INV-0042 and +971 50 123 4567 read correctly.
  • Chart of accounts names and system labels follow the active language. Text you typed (customer names, descriptions) stays as entered.

Documents you send to customers (invoice PDFs) follow the document template's language settings in SolaCount, not your screen language.

Dark mode

App Where
Solavel portal Moon/sun button in the top bar (Switch to dark mode / Switch to light mode), or Account Settings → Appearance → Theme.
SolaCount Toggle theme in the top bar.
SolaStock ☾ / ☀ button in the top bar. Starts from your device's light/dark setting.
SolaProjects Sun/moon button in the top bar (on phones inside the account menu). Starts from your device's light/dark setting until you choose.
SolaHR Sun/moon toggle in the top bar.

The toggle in each app is saved per app in this browser, so a quick change in one app doesn't change the others. To set a default for all apps, choose Light or Dark in Account Settings → Appearance and click Save changes: your apps adopt it the first time you open them in a browser, and again whenever you change the account default; a later toggle on a device survives reloads. A new device with no saved choice starts from the account default, or from the device setting where an app follows it (SolaStock, SolaProjects).

Steps: switch the portal to Arabic

  1. Click the globe button in the top bar.
  2. Choose العربية.
  3. The page reloads right-to-left. Open apps from Workspace Home as usual. SolaCount, SolaStock and SolaHR remember their own language choice, so switch them too if needed.

Reporting a translation or layout problem

Include the app, the page address, the language, the device or screen width, and a screenshot without customer data. Send it through Reports → New report in the portal.
