Hello.
For projects with a length limitation, I copy/paste the source to the target segment to see the number of characters before adding my translation. But is there another way to see the source length in real-time? I couldn't find a plugin but maybe somebody else has.
Thanks,

Hi Claudia Alvis (calvis) ,
You could use Autohotkey for this. I came across this script written by Selcuk Akyuz ProZ fairly recently:

!c::
Send, ^c
ClipWait
Chars := StrLen(Clipboard)
RegExReplace(Clipboard,A_Space,"",Spaces)
MsgBox % "The highlighted text is " Chars " characters in length and contains " Spaces " spaces."
return
So for example, I can select text in the source then press Alt+C and I get this:
