filter segments and change their status upon confirming them.

Hello,

I hope you can introduce this feature:

1. Filter for segments in the Advanced display filter (already available and easy to do).

2. Introduce a feature in the Editor that would allow the translator to confirm active segments (the ones filtered) and change their status automatically to the status the translator wants, so this feature will only work on the filtered active segments. 

I am attaching a screenshot with a similar feature, but for the one I am introducing, I want this to be like a button in the editor window to select a status for all filtered active segments upon confirmation. That would indeed be a life saver in so many situations.Screenshot of Trados Studio with Advanced Display Filter dialog open, showing various filter options and a red outline highlighting the proposed new feature area for confirming active segments.

  • But this is already possible. Just filter whatever you want, then select all segments and use the option "Change segment status". Works like charm...

    The custom statuses would also guarantee the immediate change of those segments to something else than Translated Status, just in case you want to separate those filtered segments instantly as you confirm them, and not have to wait till the end of processing all those filtered segments. A custom status like "Proofread by the translator on day so and so" would indeed make a huge difference to the translation process, so that you can even filter the projects by the date of segment revision. Hope it makes sense now.
