Building Multiple Language Versions in One Course?
I'm wondering if anyone has any good ideas on how to build a course that delivers the content in multiple languages.
I have a client that wants to build one course and deliver it to their globa...
I built a demo at a conference once where I created a default shape that had states for each language. I added triggers to the shape to change state based on the language variable.
Then whenever I wanted to add something to the slide, I duplicated the shape. This copied the triggers. Then I added my content.
I could export the word doc and then add my localized content where needed. And everything was a lot easier. I didn't have to build a bunch of versions. I just had to add my translation to the pre-established states.
This takes some forethought, but once you have it built, it works well. I'll do a quick tutorial to show how it works.
Can you explain how you use the translation tool to just change one language via states? My use of export/import changes all text in the file to that language, not just states for a specific language. So I am not fully understanding how you are using this feature to change only certain elements? Can you give any further explanation on this maybe I am missing something?
