Two questions related to locked segment:

Former Member

On Studio 2017 SR1; 

(1) Can I exclude locked segments from Display Settings (i.e., Confirmation statics displayed at the bottom of Editor View) calculation?

(2) Can I skip locked segments when going to next untranslated segment by using “Go To” function?

Thank you in advance

  • Hello ,

    The 'GoTo' function ignores the locked segment status-
    This means that even if the segment is locked (whether translated or untranslated) - 'GoTo' will jump to the locked segment but you wont be able to write to it.
    The confirmation statistics do NOT include 'locked segments' as these are not counted towards the statistic and no work will have been done on them.

    Hi, Steven
    Thank you for the response.

    (1) Go To
    I want to move (jump) to the next not-locked and yet to be translated segment. It is annoying for me that I am led into the locked segment that I cannot (or need not to) do any action. I would say my request is that 'GoTo' function ignores the locked segment “regardless of its status”.

    (2) Statics
    Your explanation: Since no work have been done on the locked segments, they are not counted as confirmed segments.
    Yes, I understand but again it is also annoying for me that, even after confirming every segment in a file that has the locked segments, the statics does not show 100%. I have to search any not-translated segments. I would say my request is to exclude any locked segment from statics.

    Anyway, thank you again.
