The best way to mass change type of custom dialogue field

Hey!

So, I have a custom text field in Articy draft, and when I import it to DS, I'd like to convert it from text to localization type.
I tried using template update/apply/sync features but they don't sync field types.

I thought to change the field via custom script, what approach would you recommend here? Is it possible to alter dialogue database directly?, or is it better to alter either sync functions or Articy importer?

Hi,

I take it you're not using articy's localization plugin?

In version 2.0.8, I can change the Apply Template menu item so it applies the field type.

Ah that would be awesome, thanks!

I can't use Articy localization unfortunately. I have old translation files that I have to port to Articy and DS and it's mess.
