To Verify Segment

A segment to verify is a segment for which the translation needs to be verified by a translator or proofread for one of the following reasons:

The segment was translated but the source text (therefore the meaning of the segment) was changed afterwards.

Or a manager found a translation they thought should be looked at and manually marked a translation as to verify.

In both cases a translator will need to check if the translation is still correct with the new source text, will make amendments if necessary and mark the segment as unproofread.

Segments to verify appear with a orange, double-lined indicator.

How to remove this “to verify” status?

Managers and translators can mark the segment back to “unproofread” by editing the segment or clicking on the checkbox.

Obsolete Segment

An obsolete segment is a segment that is no longer in use in your project. Instead of deleting this segment and its translations, we put it in a temporary category, “obsolete”, so that you can recover it and its translations. Obsolete segments are hidden from translators.

Why are my segments marked as obsolete?

How can I un-obsolete a segment?

You can mark a segment as active by uploading a version of your file that contains that segment, or by marking the obsolete segment as active.

Hidden Segment

A hidden segment is a segment that was hidden by a manager. Hidden segments are not visible by translators. Only managers can hide segments by clicking on the options button » Hide segment.

Managers can mark a hidden segment back to active by clicking on the options button » Flag segment as active.

Plural Segments

You can use the help tools given in the translation interface to translate these segments.

AutoSave

AutoSave is a feature that you can activate and deactivate in the toolbar. When turned on saving translations on the translation interface happens automatically without clicking on the “Save” button, which is not present.
