Translation of Storyline 360 as XLIFF

Hi, I'm currently testing the translation of a Storyline 360 course and I've seen the following guidance here about triggers and variables: https://community.articulate.com/series/articulate-storyl...

Checking the translated XLIFF further, there are some variables/triggers that have been translated and others that haven't.

I'm now checking our translation process to see why.

Thanks for your comments.

    My hunch is that you might have inserted a reference (%VariableName%) in a textbox.  If it's a translatable word like %Super% it would most likely be translated if you're using an automated program or if you didn't give specific instructions to a translator to ignore items marked with %%.

    Please share what else you find as you look into your translation process.

    FYI - To more easily see the contents of a XLIFF file without using Visual Studio, change the extension to .XML and then drag and drop into your favorite browser.  Much easier to read that way. :)
