Release highlights

New Image Explorer component in Create

This release brings a new component type to Elucidat Create: the Image Explorer.

The Image Explorer is designed to make complex visuals more engaging. Whether it’s breaking down the components of a product, highlighting key elements in a process, or guiding learners through a detailed environment, this interaction helps users connect visual information with deeper understanding.

Users can interact with the Image Explorer by clicking or tapping on specific areas to reveal information that can be configured to open in a pop-up or inline with the image.

You can see how this new interaction works in our Product training essentials showcase course where it is used to reveal more information about an espresso machine.

Read Adding new components to your page to learn how to add this new interaction to your Project.

 

Re-translate UI changes

To make re-translation easier to carry out, we’ve re-designed the Re-translate Options dialog box and introduced a Retranslate all button.

The Retranslate Options and Retranslate all dialog boxes now dynamically shows only the options that apply to the chosen method. For instance, content scope options that allow you to select whether all text should be translated or only new or recently modified text will only be offered when Auto-Translate is selected.

Using Retranslate all, you can apply the selected changes to up to 10 Variations at once.

The new Advanced optionsbrevity and tone—are also now neatly organized into an accordion to reduce clutter.
