Is it possible to restore segments to initial status?

Rosiba panday

We received a project with machine translations. While translating it program suddenly crashed, so our progress wasn’t saved. When reopening the project in it, we noted that the segments were saved in the translation memory. So Studio automatically filled with the previous translations. However, the status of the segments were changed. before it was at, but after the crash and refilling the segment. My question is, is it possible to change the status of these affected segments back to AT?

    Interesting... the normal question is how to get rid of the AT statuses, not put them back!

    The best way would have been to use the autosave... but I guess this wasn't available to you or you would have done it.  Perhaps, if you know that every single segment was AT originally then you could use a text editor to replace the origin of any segment with a match coming from your TM with an edited AT status, or just AT status.

    Other than that you could also reload the original project and then go over the translations again using your TM for guidance... but obviously a pretty tedious task if there are a lot.

    Or, maybe it makes sense to simply tell your client what happened and see what they suggest.  Perhaps it won't be too much of a problem?
