Several origin and target languages in the same project

Question

Within the same project I got files in different origin languages (English, Spanish) to be translated in two target languages (Spanish and Basque). Is there a simple way to do this within one single project or do I need to set up different projects for all the origin/target pairs?

 Technically you can "fudge" this using AnyTM to add the appropriate TMs. It is possible to have mixed source language projects, but it is messy and you will lose many benefits that language resources for the real source language provide through properly recognising things like numbers, dates and other placeables. 
 The most sensible approach is to sort the files into source language folders and create separate projects for each one. 
 But if you do want to learn more about how AnyTM works in this regard this article explains:

 The section titled "Multilingual Source" is the relevant bit. But I would just say again... I think you are going to be much better off sorting the files into source language folders and creating separate projects. The management of the project will be much harder and prone to errors, especially if you are sharing the work with others.

In meinem Projekt kann ich diese Funktion f&uuml;r eine mehrsprachige Datei in der Men&uuml;leiste nicht aktivieren, folglich werden mir die TMX-Dateien in das Projekt nicht angelegt. 
 Was ist zu tun? 
 Es handelt sich um eine Datei mit drei Sprachen.

Alles gut. Am Ende hatte ich ja mein positives Ergebnis. 
 Allerdings ist das Scrollen sehr umst&auml;ndlich. Die App sollte doch die AS sofort erkennen. Dem war das leider nicht. 
 Ich erwarte eine schnelle Anpassung im System.
