Autopropagation of number only segments was and is (and most certainly will remain) a problem. For number only segments there are much better methods as autopropagatiopn.

The easiest way to deal with such segments is to use the display filter, copy all source to target and adapt the notation via search and replace. In your case it would be replacing space or non-breaking space by a dot. Very simple, very fast and much more reliable as autopropagation.

Hi, Jerzy, not sure how this would work with a mixed text and numbers document (annual report and accounts). What I WANT is a hard space, not a dot - or a comma.

I was talking about only number segments. Numbers in text are a different story. You need to adapt the replacement settings in your project:

And in your TM:

And of course you can modify numbers in text using regular expressions. Not very simple, but doable.

Thanks - I know the theory - I have more trouble with the practice, especially as I don't want either a comma or a fullstop. I want the international space, preferably hard space.

But I will try again, and thanks for showing me where to find the settings I need to change!

So remove what is setup there and insert your own preferences. If you cannot type a hard space there, either copy and paste this or use ALT+0160 to enter a non-breaking space (synonym to hard space).

Thank you! :-)
