Newbie question about DS to I2

Post by FunkyMonkey »

I am having some issues with the locations when modifying some texts.
Basically, the procedure I use to add the translations is: I import the dialogue from Articy Draft to Dialogue System -> DS to I2.

If I delete a dialogue from Articy Draft and repeat the same procedure, the translations "shift" rows, not matching the original language.

Is there any way to update the dialogues without causing this mismatch?

Thank you!

Hi,

If you're using articy:draft, please tick the DS To I2 window's Custom Field for Entries checkbox and set Field Type to "Articy Id":

When you import content from articy:draft, each dialogue entry receives a unique Articy Id from articy:draft that never changes:

This way things won't shift.
