Hey there! Hope everyone is doing well! In my app, a translator for English/Spanish/French/Italian, when I try to put the set button text to “…” it does not do so. It seems to me that my coding is correct but for some reason it is not.

Hopefully you can tell me what is wrong so I can fix it. Thanks! Ant1 ---

If I click on Italian, then English changes to Italian. But if I click on Spanish, nothing changes. Is that the problem? If so, you haven’t coded the Spanish button completely yet: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/8/b83202276d6dfd527a0a707d06d4b070b3668cd4.png) I would code both LanguageOpt buttons this way instead of what you have for the Italian button: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/9/7/972a12e27322a1dd1fd45660c3f05bd461679486.png) ![Translator cropped (1)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/a/d/adcbee005ec0c196b0654aa3ef52ddfa10bfe615.gif) ---
