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...

    Good to hear from you Jerzy, and thanks for your reply and Happy New Year to you. This is not what I meant, I am afraid. I meant that I want to apply this to the segment once I confirm it, and not by selecting all segments and change the status at one time. The feature I am introducing could also entail other custom statuses such as "to be still reviewed" or any other custom status that the translator would want to add. Sometimes Studio crashes, and that is happening often recently, so if the status is changed once the segment is confirmed, that would ensure that I have the status I want instantly, instead of losing everything with the crash of SDL studio. Hope it is clearer now.
