Not propagating correctly or I am not understanding it.

Question

I am sure there is something I am not understanding and that is why I am driving myself crazy. What&rsquo;s new&hellip;. 
 This is how I have Options / Auto-propagation setup 
 
 Sometimes it propagate and sometimes it does not, even though there is no change to be made. 
 Sometimes it propagates, however, it does not say 100%, it might say 71%, 78%, etc., but it copied from Source to Target. 
 Here are some examples of what is happening. 
 Propagate making changes to Source: 
 
 T his is exactly the same. Why does it say 71% and why instead it did not simply propagate and confirm it? 
 
 Why the space and period before semicolon and not simply propagate? No changes to be made. 
 
 Why did it not simply propagate? No changes to be made. 
 
 First one propagated with 78% and second one did not propagate and it did not confirm. 
 
 No question about it I am doing something wrong or expecting something different. 
 Thank you in advance for anyone answering.

Hi Maria V. Garrido ,

 71% is the matching value found with your TM. 
 Also, do you see the wrench icon? It means that Studio tried to correct the translation. It was successful this time, but leaving the segment unconfirmed, lets you decide manually.

 Again, Studio tried to repair the segment based on the content of your TM. This time was unsuccessful. You can discard the changes introduced by the automatic repair or manually change edit as needed.

 Studio is not clever enough to know that for this segment is only a matter of copying Source to target. Anyway you can enable Copy Source to target in File > Options > Automation, so all segments will be processed that way, not only the easy ones. 
 Maria V. Garrido said: First one propagated with 78% and second one did not propagate and it did not confirm. 
 
 The second segment is quite different from the first one, so Studio didn't even try to repair it (no wrench icon). 
 I hope it helps!
