# Advanced Config

Use Advanced Config when a text layer needs language-specific rendering behavior that standard Text Connector settings do not cover. Typical uses include right-to-left text, Arabic text, and projects where dynamic copy must preserve correct direction, shaping, and layout.

## Options

| Option                   | What it controls                                                                      | Notes                                                                                     |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Target text layer**    | The text layer affected by the advanced configuration.                                | Confirm the layer is connected to the dynamic text that needs language-specific handling. |
| **Text direction**       | Whether the text should render left-to-right or right-to-left.                        | Use right-to-left for languages and copy that require it.                                 |
| **Arabic handling**      | Text behavior for Arabic content.                                                     | Preview real Arabic copy rather than only short test strings.                             |
| **Source value**         | The data field, live-control value, edit value, or expression that supplies the text. | Confirm the source can contain the target language and expected characters.               |
| **Fallback text**        | The text used when the source value is missing.                                       | Use fallback copy that matches the same direction and layout needs.                       |
| **Resize and alignment** | How the text fits after direction and language behavior are applied.                  | Test long values, line breaks, and mixed-language copy.                                   |

## Configure Advanced Text Rendering

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Select the Text Layer

Choose the text layer that needs advanced language behavior.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Confirm the Source Text

Check the Dynamic Data field, Live Control value, edit value, or expression that supplies the text.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Set Direction and Language Behavior

Configure the direction and language-specific behavior required by the text.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Adjust Fit and Alignment

Review alignment, line wrapping, and resize behavior after applying the advanced configuration.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Preview Real Copy

Use representative text in the target language, including long values and any mixed-language values expected in production.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Success Checks

Before publishing Advanced Config changes, confirm:

* Text direction matches the language and content.
* Real target-language copy renders correctly in Studio preview.
* Long values and line breaks remain readable.
* Fallback copy uses the correct direction and layout behavior.
* The configuration does not conflict with Text Connector casing, alignment, or resize settings.
