Hello - first post here :)
I am using the Hot Spot question in a bilingual survey (EN/FR). Once a respondent has selected regions, I'm asking for her confirmation by displaying the region names.
How can I translate the region names to FR?
I reached out to Qualtrics support, and they suggested creating as many embedded variables as I have regions, but I'm wondering if you have ever tried another solution?
Thanks for your help!

I'm a fan of embedded variables personally, so that's the route I would go. If they didn't explain specifically, you can do two branches in your survey flow: one for if they are FR and one for EN. You can declare the region names there in each branch.
@DaisyD,
Personally, I would create a MC question before the Hotspot question where the choices are the regions, and translate it. Then hide it with display logic. Pipe the choice text from the MC question into your Hotspot question as the region names (e.g., ${q://QID1/ChoiceDescription/1}). Then when you pipe the region names from the Hotspot question they will be in whatever language the respondent is using.

Thank you both so much! I really appreciate your help!
