While the Korbyt CSM interface is only available in English, the text entry fields in Korbyt will accept non-English characters when entered.

The characters can be entered by:

  • Typing, if your computer has the appropriate character set turned on in the Keyboard and Language support settings

  • Copy and Pasted in plain text from a source with the correct characters

  • Translated to the characters in many browsersโ€™ built-in tools such as Chromium accessibility and Google Chrome Translate

The areas in Korbyt that support non-English characters include:

  • Content Titles/Names, Descriptions, and Tags

  • Builder Tool Elements that accept text that is typed or pasted

    • Text-Note

    • Ticker

    • Button

    • Form Builder

  • Attribute Labels for Predefined Layout Elements in the Builder Tool

  • Those Labels will also be the characters used in the Predefined Web Submission Form, and the text characters entered into the form will carry over to the design itself

  • They are also used in the descriptions and placeholder values in the Launchpad templates

  • Playlist Names, Clever Trigger Names, and Tags that are part of the evaluation of a clever rule

  • Playlist information including Player Alias, and Metadata

    • Which is displayed in the player list and in the Playlist/Player Assignment area

    • Player Name does not accept non-western characters
