Erratic behaviour of autopropagation of first occurrences in SDL Studio 2015 or wrong configuration?

Jose Gambin Asensio

Hello all,

 

I am dealing with a project with many repetitions. In order to deal with repetitions we use the filter to lock all the segments filtered as "Excluding first occurrences" and then translated the "First occurrences". Once translated we unlocked the empty segments and confirm the "First occurrences" for auto-propagation. This is working in some segments by not in others. My questions: Is this an erratic behaviour in SDL Studio 2015 or is there a configuration that will make this work for all segments?

You can find below a screenshot where this is illustratred. In the picture you can see that segment 665 (VIVODENT PE ACRYLIC TEETH LOWER ANTERIORS A2 2C) is not an auto-propagation, though the segment 615 (VIVODENT PE ACRYLIC TEETH LOWER ANTERIORS A2 1C) was confirmed, but in the case of segment 669 (VIVODENT PE ACRYLIC TEETH LOWER ANTERIORS A2 3A) when segment 613 was confirmed (VIVODENT PE ACRYLIC TEETH LOWER ANTERIORS A2 1A).  Any explanation to this? Any work-around? Thanks in anyone can help here!

    Hello José,

    It looks to me as though your alphanumerics are not being recognised at all (no blue line under the numbers) so it's treated as a fuzzy and not auto-propagated. If the alphanumeric is not recognised then this would be the correct behaviour. Does appear odd though as #669 shows the underline even though it's not the active segment.

    Workarounds... have you tried pre-translating from your TM as opposed to relying on AP? Should not really make a difference here but maybe worth a trick.

    Regards

    Hello again, Paul, per my last message I was able to correctly configured SDL Studio so it will substitute automatically alphanumerics. Despite this has mostly solved the issue and most of the "non first occurrences" are autopropagated there are still segments that are not autopropagated and I do not find the reason why. As you can see in this occassion, the number and alphanumerics are marked as placeables, but stil no autopropagation of segment 6382, which apparently is the same as 6391. I tried to pretranslate the files as you suggested but still no luck. Any ideas?
