Good to know. SysPrefs warns that changes won't take effect until I
logout and in, but skipping that step will save testing time once I
solve this issue.
That refers to the parts of the system that are normally launched or
initialized at login such as the Finder. Ordinary applications use
the current setting when they're launched.

Sorry for the confusion. To be clear, I'm not building an
application, I'm just building a framework that can be used by many
applications. The localized bundle Contents do contain all of the
localized directories, as well as the correctly localized *.strings
files. If this isn't an XCode issue, what should I explore next as
the possible problem?
Do the applications in question contain Italian localization
resources of their own?
FWIW, please use plain text in postings to the list. Messages are
smaller, people getting the messages in digest mode get plain text
anyway as I recall, and e-mail clients can display your messages in
the font the reader prefers instead of the one you pick (which in my
case is a couple of sizes smaller than my preferred font).
