Multi Language Course

Hello,

I have a client who wants a course in 3 languages. They do not want to manage 3 courses, so I have to put it in one course with multiple scenes. One of my concerns besides the file size is the built-in course menu. They want the default menu. With 3 languages is there a way to filter and show the current language only in the menu?? 

  • Articulate has this article about multi-language courses: 

    https://community.articulate.com/articles/how-to-create-one-storyline-course-with-multiple-languages 

    However, as the article states, you can only choose 1 language for Player-level text.

    • Player-level text includes the built-in Menu. If you want menus in different languages, you'd have to build custom ones. 
    • It also includes Text Labels, such as the system messages that appear when resuming a course or if the user clicks the Submit button before selecting an answer. The only possible workaround for that would be to edit the Text Labels to include all 3 languages for each item someone might encounter. But I'm not sure if that would really work, because there might be some limits to how long certain messages can be.

      Thanks for the reply! I was hoping there was a workaround I wasn't aware of.
