Language Mapping

Question

The wiki articles on the Language Mapping feature (the main one is here: community.rws.com/.../language-mapping) are much out-of-date. Also, for some reason, whichever language code combination I select (in the Language Mapping window) I cannot get the Apply button to be active.

 Hi Mats... perhaps the question itself could use some work. Remember you're speaking to a computer here and as far as I can tell there is very little in your question to help it give you a smarter answer!! Having said that I'm not sure how much it knows about Language Weaver (which I guess you are referring to because I'm a human and can sometimes guess well), but perhaps this video will help explain:

 Mats Linder said: To try a better combination, I picked Igbo, to be translated using the language code for Nigerian. But there is no language code for that! And I suppose the answer is that the language codes list only contains some of the ones "missing" in the Language Weaver list -- you just have to be lucky! 
 Not exactly. If Language Weaver doesn't support Nigerian (which I don't believe it does) then how could it work? It would be very cool if you could select any language you like and Language Weaver just did it :-) 
 Mats Linder said: Above the list in LW Provider, it says (in a certain case) "Total languages 599, Filtered 155". How are the "total" languages defined? 
 They are all the languages supported in Trados Studio. 600 in my instance:

Mats Linder said: I doubt I could have a much better reply than the original one even with a suitable rephrasing. 
 Maybe... maybe not, but we'll never know. You will however if you try again as I just added some training material for this feature :-)
