Translation/Localization Formatting

Hello! 

I'm looking for best practices for when a Rise course is localized and text boxes inside custom blocks need to be resized. My options seem to be limited to:

  1. Resize text in translated version to fit "English-sized" text box.
  2. Resize English version text box to accommodate any/all translated languages.

Just curious what others are doing in this situation and if anybody is willing to share what works best for them.

Thanks!

    Hi ChristieBeck-77,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    I imagine this is a common question for users working with localized content. In Rise 360, standard blocks typically adapt to accommodate translated text automatically. 

    Custom blocks work a bit differently, as you mentioned. Resizing the source-language version to accommodate longer translated text is a great approach and can help reduce the need for language-specific adjustments later on.

    I'm interested to hear how others in the community handle this and what has worked best for them!
