Query and Feature Request: Pop up when a localization credit will be used
In my last billing cycle I created a localized e-learning in 8 languages (elearning 1). In the new billing cycle I initially didn't have localization as an add-on and so couldn't open the file, instead I was prompted to save the languages as individual storyline files. Then a different project has been assigned 10 credits so localization is back as a feature but I only want to use those credits for a specific project that Omniplex are working on and not my original file (elearning 2). What I cannot tell is, if I make edits to one of the exported language files from my original e-learning (elearning 1), that I created when I didn't have localization enabled, will I be charged a credit when I publish that individual language file? And if I am not the admin of the account how do I know if a credit is about to be used / has been used? Could we please have a feature in Storyline that gives you a pop up when a credit is about to be spent? It would help a lot in trying to manage credits that have been allocated for certain projects, especially if you have a centralized account with one admin, as then users could see if and when they are at risk of spending credits they don't have allocated. Thank you for any support.Localization Best Practices
Happy Monday! 👋 As a reminder, another Localization webinar is happening on the 22nd, and there’s still time to sign up for it. This helpful article discusses some general best practices for localization. When I first started working with translations, I had no idea that switching to a different language, like German or French, could greatly impact my text layouts. Some languages take up a lot more room! That article has some great writing and graphic design tips, so I highly recommend checking it out.
