Disabling manual translation lookups

By default, a lookup is performed automatically in the translation memory (TM) when you place your cursor in a segment. However, you can disable the default, automatic lookup and replace it with a manual lookup. Once manual translation lookup is enabled, you can disable it at any time.

Procedure

  1. Go to File, and select Options.
  2. In the Options dialog, in the navigation tree, expand Editor.
  3. Select Automation.
  4. Under Translation Memory, select the Perform lookup when active segment changes checkbox.
    Selecting the Perform lookup when active segment changes checkbox makes the following options available for selection:
    • Apply best match after successful lookup
    • Perform automated translation lookup on confirmed segments

What to do next

You can now apply your automatic lookup results.
