Editing a Target segment

Learn where to edit target segments.

Procedure

  1. Click inside the target segment and start typing. Make sure that the formatting tags are correctly placed to reflect the text formatting in the source segment.
    • If the segment text cannot be edited and this icon appears beside the segment, the segment is locked. Click the icon to unlock the segment (if you cannot unlock the segment, you do not have the necessary permissions).
  2. When you have finished translating the segment, press Enter to exit the segment and confirm the translation. The bar between the source and target segment changes color to blue.
    • If there are other source segments in the task that have identical content, the translation will be auto-propagated (copied) to those segments. In these 'copy-to' segments, the bar between the source and target segment changes color to orange.
    • If you want to exit the segment without confirming the translation, click outside the segment.
  3. Click Save at any time to save the translation without exiting the Translation interface.
