Since text style is embedded in the strings, the localization engine will have
no way to distinguish which part should be localized and which part should not.
Besides using _locComment_text, I also tried below method:
Step 1. Define {\WixUI_Font_Bigger} as a property (e.g. UIBiggerFont).
Step 2. In the wxl, use [UIBiggerFont] to replace {\WixUI_Font_Bigger}.
Unfortunately, this did not work either. In my understanding, Property
replacemane happens in run time instead of compile time, which is too late.
Thus, the result is you can see {\WixUI_Font_Bigger} text in UI instead of the
bigger font of the title.
Thanks

Thanks Blair. You are right - the pseudo-loc routine pseudo-localized
"{\WixUI_Font_Bigger}".
To prevent this happen, I tried:
<String Id="WelcomeDlgTitle"
Overridable="yes"><!--_locComment_text="{Locked="{\WixUI_Font_Bigger}"}"-->{\WixUI_Font_Bigger}Welcome
to [ProductName] Setup</String>
But it did not work:
<String Id="WelcomeDlgTitle" Overridable="yes"><!--
_locComment_text="{Locked="{\WixUI_Font_Bigger}"}"-->థ్క{\WîxÙÍ_Föñt_Þíggêr}Wël¢ómé
tö [ProductName] §ëtµp _ʃ¯ʅ _ʃ¯ʅ _ʃ¯ʅ _ʃ¯ʅ _థ్క</String>
How can I use locComment_text to lock part of the string so that this part is
not pseudo-localized?
Thanks
Lian

Could your pseudo-loc routine have removed the "\" characters found within
the curly braces in your .wxl files? Could your TextStyle table have been
somehow affected by your localization activities?

Hi,
Our pseudo-localized installer shows {WixUI_Font_Bigger} &
{WixUI_Font_Title} on all install windows. We just reused Wix's dialogs and
localized the Wix strings.
The same behavior was observed in one of our previous project's installer.
How can we fix this issue?
Appreciate your help!
Thanks
Lian
