Layout

Changes how the segments are arranged. The options are:

Vertical

Horizontal

The selected layout will be persistent across batches and jobs.

Save Exact Matches

Save Exact Matches is enabled by default. When you save a segment, this option will automatically save repetitions within the same batch. This option will update previously updated segments. You can opt to turn this off in the settings.

Page Size

The page size option sets the number of segments to be displayed on a page. You can set this to display 20 or 50 segments at a time.

Segment Filters

Segments in the Segment Editor section can be filtered by status. 

Click on the ‘Filter’ option from the Sidebar menu to pull up the filtering options.

The most useful filters for validation are the status filters:

• Unsaved - Displays segments which have not been modified and saved.
• Saved - Displays segments which are saved.
• Locked - Displays segments which are locked.
• Unlocked - Displays segments which are not locked.
• Edited - Displays segments which have been modified but not saved.

NOTE: Once you set the filters, the setting will be remembered for the respective batch when you go out and back into the batch, so please remember to check the filter settings to ensure that you have not missed any segments you would like to validate.

Segment Activity

The Activity tab displays validator comments, as well as the edit history for the target text made by the vendors and other validators.

The Activity tab can be filtered to display all actions (edits and comments), only comments, or only edits made to the target text.

Commenting

Comments can be added to a segment. Comments are sent back to the Project Manager and vendors when validation is complete. Each segment can only have one comment per user, however, it is possible to edit or delete an existing comment if needed. Commenting should only be used to provide feedback to our vendors for future reference.
