I am developing a custom section, my section has a TreeController.

I add nodes to it like this:

            nodes.Add(CreateTreeNode(
                "-10",
                "-1",
                queryStrings,
                Umbraco.GetDictionaryValue("Events"),
                "icon-slideshow",
                false));

Now my user has language set to Swedish and I have added Swedish language and added dictionary with "Events" as well as many other things in my dictionary.

Now here is the thing, I could have sworn that this worked like it was supposed last time, but today when I pick up where I left off I get a blank string back from this method: Umbraco.GetDictionaryValue("Events")

If I debug and check my culture or UI culture they are set to "en-GB" even tho I have Swedish set for my user (the rest of umbraco interface is in Swedish).

However, If I do these two lines of code

            System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("sv");
            System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("sv");

It all works, but then of course I have forced Swedish. I want people to get the language they have set their user to.

Any clues? Is it supposed to set culture to users selected language? If not, how can I get it to translate it to the users language?
