Segments not changing to draft status when changes are made

In all previous documents I have translated in Studio, when I alter the text in a confirmed segment, the status changes to "draft".

Today, I am working on an .sdlxliff file that someone sent me to translate, however, if I translate a segment, confirm it, and then go back to alter some text in it, the segment remains confirmed, i.e. it doesn't revert to draft status. How can I force the document into the default mode of reverting to draft status automatically when a change is made in the segment?

Thank you in advance.

  • Dear Robert,

    If I have understood correctly, you are confirming segments after making your changes. If you want the status of a segment that you have made changes in to remain as draft, don't confirm it.

    Confirming a segment in Translation mode* changes its status from 'draft' to 'translated' to indicate that you have finished with that segment. It also saves the segment to the translation memory(ies) that you have set to update.

    I hope this answers you question.

    All the best,
    Ali
