Configuring user settings in Trados Online Editor

Configure Trados Online Editor settings related to font adaptation, auto-propagation, and lookups.

About this task

Auto-propagation is the process whereby the confirmed translation from one segment is copied to other segments within the same file that have identical source content. By default, when you confirm a segment that has the Not Translated or Draft status, its translation is copied automatically to all the other segments with identical source content in the file you are working on.

Procedure

  1. Trados Online Editor で、適切なファイルを開きます。
  2. On the View tab, under Settings, select Options.
  3. To configure a minimum and a maximum font size for segments, expand the Font Adaptation section, and then specify a minimum and a maximum value. Select the Adapt font sizes checkbox for the settings to be applied immediately after saving.
  4. To configure auto-propagation behavior, expand the Auto-propagation section, and then do the following:
    1. Select the Auto-propagate exact matches to confirmed segments checkbox if you want previously confirmed translations to be updated whenever you confirm a newer translation of a segment that has the same source content. If you clear this checkbox, the newly confirmed translation will only be auto-propagated to same-source segments that have the Not Translated or Draft status; it will not be auto-propagated to previously confirmed translations.
    2. Select the Confirm segment after auto-propagating an exact match checkbox if you want auto-propagated translations to also be confirmed automatically for all the segments with an exact match.
    3. To control where you would like auto-propagation to start, in the Start propagation from list, select one of the available options: Start of document or Next segment.
      Start of document means that auto-propagation will take place throughout the entire file (same-source segments both before and after the confirmed segment). On the other hand, Next segment means that auto-propagation will only affect same-source segments after the confirmed segment; in this case, the segments before the confirmed one will not be affected.
  5. To configure lookup settings, expand the Lookups section, and then do the following:
    1. Under Minimum match value, specify the minimum threshold for suggested translation memory matches. The default value is 70%. Lowering the value under 70% can have a negative impact on translation memory performance.
    2. Under Maximum number of hits, specify the maximum number of suggested translation memory matches. The default value is 5.
  6. When finished, select Save
