I am to about start a new project for learners based in the Middle East and need to translate the course content and audio transcript into Arabic.This is the first time I have been asked to produce a course that will be in a different language and would like to draw on the experiences of the Articulate community for any advice.

Have a quick question that requires your Arabic Storyline expertise!
I am building two units, one English and another in Arabic. In my English unit, I have a variable to track the score a person has got so far in the quiz. The variable is predictively called 'ScoreSoFar' and on each slide of my quiz, I have a statement that goes:
Score so far: %ScoreSoFar% points
which keeps changing with every slide based on the user getting the answers right or wrong.
Now, trying to use the same variable in Arabic, I used Google Translate to give me this -
نتيجة المباراة حتى الآن:٪ ScoreSoFar٪ نقاط
I then used the right-to-left text direction button to make it RTL (image below)
but the trouble is this isn't working now and I'm not sure why. It seems to be stuck on the same text(image below) and not getting updated.
I would appreciate any comment or suggestion since I only have Google translate to help me get this working. Thank you everyone!
Articulate has a history of behaving errantly with right to left languages. I remember there was one course that required publishing and we had to create images of each page and then published it to have it work finally.
