System Options - Language Variants

Multiple text variants can be stored against a number of diagram objects, such as activities, free text, note bubbles, flow lines, etc. A user's locale setting will determine which object text variant is displayed. Since a single map can store multiple text translations at the object level, there is no need to create multiple versions of a map for different languages. Attachments and links can also be tagged for a specific language.

Note: Text can be transferred between language variants - see Transferring text between language variants for more information.

1.Click Add.

2.From the Language drop-down list choose the language.

Is Default Language will set the language as the default language for Process Authors when creating diagram objects. Other languages specified can be selected. Only one language can be set as the default language.

Default Drill Down Logo Hint allows you to modify the default hint text of drill downs for the language.

3.Click OK to finish.
