Inconsistencies when importing translations

May 25, 2015

Hey,

I'm noticing issues when I use Storyline's translation import feature. It appears to corrupt the paragraph spacing, among other things. For instance, I have text with spacing of 3pt before and 3pt after in my course, but when I export and then re-import, the spacing will appear in the exported translation doc asĀ 0.15pt/0pt, and be imported back to Storyline the same. Other corruptions include bullet indents and numbering being changed or bullet text colors changed. This happens even if I export the translation and then reimport it without making any changes to the file at all.

(Incidentally, if I export the translation, change the paragraph spacing in the translation doc from 0.15pt/0pt back to the correct 3pt/3pt and then re-import, I *still* don't get the right spacing in my course. Instead, it changes it to 4.7pt/0pt. Grrrr...).

Is this a known issue and is there anything I can do to fix it? It's a real time-sink having to sweep my courses after importing a translation to fix paragraph spacings and suchlike, especially since there's no global search-replace for that.

Cheers,

James
