Short Text Editor Settings 

Use

You can adapt the short text editor so that it meets your specific requirements by maintaining the settings. SAP advises you not to change the standard settings.

Features

You can maintain the following short text editor settings:

·         Display New Texts

If you select this checkbox, the system displays new (red) lines when you access a short text for translation.

·         Display Modified Texts

If you select this checkbox, the system displays modified (yellow) lines when you access a short text for translation.

·         Display 100% Text Matches

If you select this checkbox, the system displays correctly translated (green) lines when you access a short text for translation.

You are advised to select all three of the above checkboxes to ensure you are provided with as much contextual information as possible during translation.

·         Display Proposals

If you select this checkbox, the system displays the best proposal (assuming that a best proposal exists) directly beneath the translation line.

·         Save and Next

If you select this checkbox, you exit the short text editor when you save. In sequential processing, you access the next object in the worklist that needs to be processed.

·         Display Comment for Object

If you select this checkbox, and if a comment has been entered for the entire object, the system displays it in the short text editor at the top of the screen.

Activities

To enter your short text editor settings, choose Utilities ® Settings and select the Short Text Editor tab page. You can then enter the settings described above. Otherwise, the standard settings are used instead.
