Changes in the Online Editor
The Online Editor will be receiving an update with this release. Check the release highlights below.
Secure copy/paste from the Online Editor
Copy/pasting segment text from the Online Editor now only works in secure contexts (HTTPS connections). This feature is available for all supported browsers.
Ability to paste text inside comments
Comments are no longer dismissed when clicking outside the box. This means that you can now copy/paste text from segments that contain the currently marked segments.
Restricted editing of segments over 2000 characters
Editing the target segments of source segments that contain more than 2.000 characters is no longer allowed. When opening such files, the Online Editor now shows a warning message and locks these segments. Previously, source segment were truncated at 2000 characters and content was lost.
Note: 2000 characters corresponds to over one page of content, which generally makes translation difficult. To avoid working with such long segments, we recommend that you review your segmentation rules.
Verification errors can now be filtered for a specific segment
The Verification side panel includes a new filter which shows errors specific to the segment you are currently working on.
Additional details displayed in status bar in form of tooltips
Hovering over the Restricted Editing text in the status bar now displays the following tooltip: Editor is in restricted editing mode and copy and cut functionality is disabled.
- Text insert is active
- Text overwrite is active
- Editor is in limited editing mode and only adding comments is allowed.
