    I can copy a rule to another project in the Target Path Rules dialog, by dragging it. But this requires me to have both projects open in Passolo. It means I have to remember which project I set up the rule in, so that I can open the correct project for...

    Why in Passolo 2016 I can't set up dark background for translation Windows? Do you know how eye-straining is, when I have to sit for 15 h and stare at so bright colors? In Passolo 2015 background was adapted to system colors - and because my color scheme...
