Locked segments should not be counted in the untranslated words counter at the bottom right of Editor - otherwise it is useless as an indicator of remaining work to be done in a document. Or it should be possible to choose to exclude locked segments.

Hi Dennis,
Change the status of the segments and then change their status back when you are finished.
For example, I just received a file with locked segments having the status of "Not Translated", "Draft" and "Translated".
I selected the "Translated" segments, unlocked them, changed their status to "Signed Off" and locked them again.
Then I did the same with the "Draft" segments, except I changed them to "Sign-off Rejected" and locked them again.
Then I did the same with the "Not Translated" segments, except I changed them to "Translation Rejected" and locked them.
I don't use these status values anywhere else in the job, so I can change all of these segments back when I have completed the translation.
(It would be nice to have a few other "spare" status values to use like this. Maybe SDL could add a few, like "User1", "User2", "User3", etc ;-)
Best regards,
