No, you cannot. You’re best option may be to always ask and then you can decide, or just turn off the AP altogether.

Ups, Memsource allows that and Smartcat also, is very easy to do, you just do one click on the pencil icon in the segment, you mark it in red and that is all, that segment will not propagate.

Would you consider to add this feature to Trados? It is really easy to use.

If I turn on "always to ask me", for a document of +8000 segments with +5000 repetitions I would have to press Ctrl + Enter so much that I will burn the keyboard...

Well, but if you do not want to propagate into certain segments, you need to mark them somehow. The same is simply possible in Studio, for example you can lock such segments.

This is exactly as easy to use as in other programs. If you would spread more light on your use case and tell us why not to propagate or provide more examples, maybe we could get a better idea of what you want to do. For exmple, if I have a segment, which needs to be confirmed, but not autopropagated, I can change th status of this segment by right clicking it.

Very easy, I have a segment (segment number 2974) and it says "Regulatory". I have the same word in many other segments, before and after the segment number 2974.

What I want exactly is to mark the segment number 2974 to avoid the propagation of this segment in the next segments.

Right click it and change status to translated. This will NOT trigger the AP.

Aha, let me see if I did understand well.

I type the translation in the segment and I do not press Ctrl + Enter, I just change the status as translated? Is that right?

If so, this solution is simply brilliant! thank you!

You can also lock the segment by clicking into it and using Ctrl+L to prevent it being autopropagated by the client if you are returning an sdlxliff file to them

All the best

Yes, exactly. Changing the status to translated by right clicking or using the Segment status button in the ribbon (not the confirmation button) does NOT trigger AP.

I'd rather prefer not to block the segment, I'm aware already of Ctrl + L, I would prefer the client be able to edit it if he/she want, I would just like not to propagate it.

Ah, OK
