Translation Settings

Explanation

PixPin's translation function is implemented through cloud services and requires setting the translation service API key. After setting, you can use the translation function in the right-click menu of the pin or the translation shortcut (Ctrl + Q).

TIP

Member users do not need to set it up and can use the translation function directly.

Setup Method

Currently supports Youdao translation service settings.

Image Translation is used on screenshots and image pins, and Text Translation is used on text pins (pinning after copying text). You need to enable the corresponding services.

You also need to confirm that the image translation service is enabled, otherwise the translation function will fail on screenshots or image pins.
