Importing files

To re-import a string list after external translation, select Home tab > Import. First, select one or more files using the Windows file selection dialog. The following dialog appears:

Click on Add to select additional files to be imported. Click Remove to delete files from the list. Click Setup to edit the settings for the currently selected format. These are, however, primarily related to exports and are not particularly meaningful for imports.

Check the format for each file that is to be imported. You can change the format by clicking on the small triangle or by right-clicking the entry.

Settings for Translation Bundles

Once you have imported the final version of the translation bundle, you need to release the string lists so that further changes can be made to them within the project. If you are only importing an interim version or are still waiting for translations from other translators, you should not release the string lists as you will be unable to import further translation bundles after this.

Settings for Text-based Formats

If at least one of the files to be imported is in a text-based format (i.e., if it is anything other than a translation bundle), the Settings for Text-based Formats page appears.

By default, imported texts are marked as "for review". If you want them validated immediately, activate the corresponding setting on this page.

Begin Import

The last page lists all of the files that are to be imported

If you select Open string lists after import, all string lists that were imported to are opened as soon as this dialog is shut.

Click on Finish to start the import as specified. The Progress column shows you which file is currently being imported. It also shows any errors that may have occurred.

If the import is completed without any errors, the dialog is closed automatically; otherwise it remains open so that you can check your settings again and attempt the import once more.
