How can I edit the calculation breakdown of a project?

Hello,

I don't know what I have messed up during the plugin setup, but the fuzzies are not taken into account during the calculation breakdown, even though they appear in the project's Analysis Report.

Moreover, when I try to edit directly in the breakdown window, no option is available to do so. Therefore, the Cancel and Apply and Save Changes buttons' only use is ironically to close the window.

Any advises and screenshots are welcome!

Many thanks.

  • Hello Eugene,

    Thank you so much for checking.

    I never realized Trados recognizes the fuzzies as different ones (internal vs conventional) so I did not think it could be a problem for the plugin. And I suppose it is a bug if the plugin was meant not to differentiate them in the analysis. In any case, it will be most useful if a solution could be provided regarding this problem and for the plugin to take everything into account in the breakdown.

    I may work on files with internal and/or conventional fuzzies, depending on the client sending me the files and how they process them. As for now, most often the calculation breakdown for these projects is inaccurate, so I have to manually correct them for the quotes and invoices. And it can be a little delicate and fastidious to bypass the issue sometimes.

    Please let me know if you think it is doable. 

    I can't thank you enough for your efforts!
