Locale variants may not always share the same name as the primary object, but they are always displayed under them in the folder view (your variant objects have to reside in the same folder as their parent objects for successful job creation).

  • The 'Locale' column displays the language or locale for each variant.
  • The flag and locale name indicate if the object has been localized.
  • If you right-click the object you will also see a Localized check box.
