Auto-propagation is unchecked but similar new target segments are still auto-propagated?

Dear Community,

I have a simple problem with auto-propagated segments below each of the confirmed segment. I have a file at hand and  it includes many segments which have  90 % , 95 % similar to each other. In most of the places only a word is changing in the segments than others.

I translate and confirm a segment and  I see  that many similar target segments are getting auto-propagated as fussy matches.

I do not want them to come and fill up all the empty target segments but they comes automatically. To prevent that I use the "Enable Auto- propagation" box unchecked from the beginning, but it makes no change...

Do you have  any idea or experience that you can offer me to prevent the auto-propagated fussy match segments by itself when I  confirm a segment?

Thank you so much!

Best Regards,

Bahar

    I do not know what you did with the total commander

    Sorry to confuse you.  All I did here was just reset the project back the state before I translated it.  So I zipped up your project as you gave it to me and then upzipped it over the changes I made before I started each test.

    the last minute of the video is exactly what it should be. Trados just Auto-Propagated the fussy matches above 80 % and the lower ones did not come automatically. So what should I do to make my Trados act as yours like after 4 th minute?

    This is interesting because what you are asking for now is not what you said in the initial description... unless I completely misread it!!  However, if this is what you need then as I showed in the video I just set the Auto=propagation to apply to 80% matches and above.  Like this:

    So the minimum match value was set to be 80% which means any matches 80% above will be autopropagated down the file.

    Hope that helps you?

    Regards
