Hi Igor,


First of all merry Xmas and a happy new year to you.


I believe I hit a bug. I imported a folder with 3 files (.docx) for translation yesterday. In the course of the translation I added some comments for the client. I then exported as bilingual file with notes which worked just fine. What didn't work was the export of the regular files with notes. It works fine if there is only a single document and not documents glued together.

Happy New Year too!

You might have unglued the documents before exporting. Anyway, please submit a support ticket attaching your packaged project (.ctp file) created via Project > Export and exchange > To Package... .

 

Hi,


The new build of CTE 2018 Forerunner is available for download with the following:


- added an option to export all documents with notes in the glue mode.

- added the display of the background color from Ms Word tables in the grid.

- fixed an issue with auto-scrolling of MT panels when they are joined together.

- fixed an issue with colors while zooming the text in the segment editors.


Please download and apply the build via the same update link as described in the first announcement post of this news. The new build number (2018010401) will be displayed in the Help > About panel after updating.

Thanks :-)


Thanks for the update! Just asking... Aren't we still able to join SDLXLIFF segments? This is driving me crazy as I started working for a company that uses trados packages (and I'm working in memoQ as it handles them amazingly).

The new build of CTE 2018 Forerunner is available for download with virtual joining of segments in external (created in other tools) projects. The feature allows to join segments in segments' editor and rearrange their contents comfortably. As soon as the joined segments leave the editor, their number is the same as before joining but their respective text contents is changed (rearranged), hence the virtual aspect of this feature. Use this new feature with care making sure that boundary (opening and closing) tags between joined segments are in place.

The long-wanted feature. Thank you.

 

Yes, it's been in the back of my mind. You're welcome!

 

Igor, JUST THANK YOU! Really, I couldn't work with CF for almost a year just for this missing feature but now it works! ^^ I sent you an email reagarding my second pc license :)


Does this also involve virtual splitting of very long segments in sdlxliff files originally created .e.g. from Excel file where the author separated sentences with soft returns (line breaks) which weren't properly segmented in Studio?

No, virtual splitting for external projects is not implemented yet as it is more complex and would require checking tags which span across the split segments. The split segment action works for CafeTran projects.
