How to propagate repeated phrases in segments

Hello. I'm making progress with Studio 2011. However, one thing is bothering me. The segments seem to be very long and I find myself re-translating parts of segments that I have previously translated. Is there any way of dealing with this so that these phrases will be automatically propagated? Thanks for any tips. Gwen

  • Either enter those phrases as AutoText (select the phrase and press ALT+F7 - this is the default shortcut AFAIK) or better enter these phrases as terms in your MultiTerm termbase. This way you will get them from the AutoSuggest function.

    I do use this feature for all phrases which are even commonly used, like "All rights reserved" and so on. Obviously I do not need the translation of these phrases to be present in my termbase, as I know these translations even woken up in the middle of the night, but I need them for AutoSuggest - and this works like a charm.
