Articulate Localization - Shrink Text on Overflow Bug
Hi all, Articulate Localization is a dream come true that my team and I have been waiting for for years. We are however running into an issue/bug in Storyline 360 with 'shrinking text on overflow' Currently we use the settings you see below. The text of each box is 'wrapped' and if there is too much text the size of the text automatically decreases. This functionality is essential, because it allows you to easily manage multiple translations because if there is too much text then the text simply slinks a little bit to still fit in the box. As a result you don't need to make ridiculously large boxes for lengthy languages like Ukrainian and Bulgarian (these versions of the training then simply have text that has smaller font). However, Articulate Storyline 360 breaks this functionality when there are multiple translations. Here is the Ukrainian Translation for example: As you can see, suddenly, scrollbars have appeared. This should not be possible but it still happened, if you Publish or Preview the Project the scrollbars are still visible. Therefore, our trial of Articulation Localization has come to a very short end because we cannot use this for our clients if the text of each text box does not shrink in other languages other than the source language. Is anyone else experiencing this bug and/or can this bug be resolved so we can use this feature as well. Secondly, when using Upgraded Project Text the option to 'Shrink text on Overflow' disappears whilst this feature is 100% necessary for running multiple translations in the same Storyline file. Japanese uses about 50% of the space Bulgarian uses, so making huge text boxes for everything just because there are languages that need a lot of room means there is also a lot of empty space on other languages. In short, it's MUCH better if Storyline simply reduces the font size of these languages so you don't need to leave insane amounts of room. We are excited about Articulate Localization, but it needs to work perfectly in Storyline 360, because we (on average) would like to have twenty languages running in one file. Best regards.

When I export an xlf or xliff file from a Rise course and then drop it into the DeepL translator (Pro version), it displays an error message: Course Title.xlf This file couldn’t be translated due to a technical issue. (unsupported_document_version) Anybody know why this happens or knows of a workaround? Thanks.Articulate Localization | TROUBLESHOOTING
Hi, I need help! I have changed a course using this function into 3 languages.. perfect seems to work. I had 147 Layout issues no problems... well at least I thought. Every time I try to resize a text box it won't let me! It does it all weirdly won't show everything inside the box and is being very difficult to work with. When I press enter on a word to move it to the next line it bugs out and I lose sentences ect. I was so excited to try this tool, now I am very frustrated. Please send help!AI Audio and Localization
Hi, I managed to get a trial version of the new localization and it is great. Only thing is it doesn't do much with the AI audio. When I go into Review, if I turn on Closed Captioning I can see the CCs have been translated but there is no way to edit them if they aren't correct. Also, is there a way for the AI to speak the newly translated language? When I go into the "Text to Speech" dialogue box, the text is still english.New Storyline Localization feature missing
Hello, I have verified that I'm updated to the most recent version of Storyline, and I opened an existing Story file to play with the localization tool. However, I don't see that option in the menu as shown in the most recent update video. I don't understand why the feature is not there, when there are no updates showing as available in my Articulate 360 app. Please advise. Thank you!Translation for Custom Blocks, Code Blocks, and Text-to-speech
I was just on David's call and these new features in Rise look really great. I can see a lot of possibilities—if I can get them translated. What are the translation options, processes, and limitations for each of these features? For example, are text boxes in Custom Blocks included in the XLIFF exports? What about text in a Code Block? During the call, David inserted a calculator using a code block. The calculator had a heading at the top. How would I go about getting that heading translated? Finally, if I use the text-to-speech feature, how do I go about getting that text translated so I can generate the speech in other languages? Is it included in the XLIFF file? I'm loving these new features, but everything I do needs to be translated and I'm trying to avoid creating extra work and opportunities for things to get missed. Thanks!Migration to EU server
I want my data on an EU server but that seems impossible. I started using Articulate 5 years ago. Than there was no EU server. I did build courses and now I could not send a copy of a course to a customer I builded the course for. I see it as my content and I want to migrate to a EU server. But this is a service that Articulate does not offer. Does any now how solve this? Or perhaps some experts of the organisation can solve this for me. Thanks in advance, Rypke ProceeArticulate Presenter 360 - problems with german umlaut
Hello Forum, we have to rework an older presenter training. The training is in german and as soon as an umlaut is used the text is no longer displayed or becomes very tiny. Does anyone have an idea, or even better, a solution? My presenter version is: v8.33.31612.0 I am using MS Office 360. BR, Roman
