Can you tell more about how

Can you tell more about how you built this and what you're trying to do? It's a bit hard to see.

I.e. is this a content type? What kind of field? What parts are field label, which content? Which translation modules are you using?

hi

first of all..thank you..really appreciate your time

i created a select list user interface whereby the user chooses from drop down ...it is translated, works fine in both french and english for the entry ....i cannot get that drop down menu to translate in a view...i can send snapshots of my issue but cant figure how to attach in this environment...i have entity translation, L10n, i18n...

example:

english interface
add content-sell
label:condition
drop down select list: new
used user would choose

french interface
add content-vendre
label:condition
drop down select list: nouveau
usage

that part works, no issues

part 2.
when i create a view using the above as a content filter

the drop down select list remains english in french mode....i would like to have that drop down box in french

so that new & used are nouveau/usage within the select list of drop down box

i know i am probably not very clear
this is my email i can send jpegs of my screen shots

again thank you for your time
hope to hear from you

So if I understand correctly

So if I understand correctly you created a content type with an entity-translation enabled "select list" field, but when used in a views exposed filter, the values of the field are not translated.

I'm not sure if if this works differently in views exposed filters, but for regular entity-translated views content the solution is to add a relationship "Entity translation: translations" and then add a filter "Entity translation: Language (= Current user's language)'".
