Text frame
@Nimloth, a quick question, let say in the future when translating function is in place, would it be smarter if I define my dialogue using the editor text frame as opposed to hard text embedded in the image? What is the primary intention of providing the text frame feature?
If it somehow will make it easier for translation, I'm thinking of using it right away. Please advise.
That is correct! Translations will make use of the text being separate from the image, and makes it so you don’t need to upload more than once!
@Lexflex is the brain behind our upcoming translations feature. Flagging this for him also Incase you have more specific questions :)
Nice thanks!
How does that work with speech bubble size? A language such as Chinese will shrink in size while a language like Tagalog will expand.
Great question, and one that we'll need to solve as we tackle translations. That said, it will of course be possible to update and have separate image assets for different language versions should you want / need that.How does that work with speech bubble size? A language such as Chinese will shrink in size while a language like Tagalog will expand.
Another use-case for that might be names of things like street signs, visual cues for sound effects, and more :)
