Customize Parser

Question

We are pre-translating xml files using the xml filter. The filter is segmenting sentences where no segmentation should take place: e.g. "Right-click the -click the Current System DEV E-mail Recipient Stored Value and select Edit.

is segmented into 4 segments. How can I modify the existing parser to prevent such segmentation before and ignore these elements? Thank you!

Hi Eva, 
 Most likely you're using the generic "XML: Any XML" file type. Is the xml you are using a common format? 
 If not, you will have to create a custom file type. 
 I recommend the following article to guide you through:

Hi Eva, 
 
As Jesse said, customising the XML filter is the way forward. You probably only need to make the cs elements internal and this will prevent them segmenting.
