Long Text Editor 

Purpose

Long texts are individual objects consisting of more than one line, which you translate using the long text editor. To translate a long text, you can either work sequentially through your worklist or double-click the individual objects in the worklist. (See Translating Individual Objects). The system will take you directly to the long text editor.

When you call up a long text object, the long text editor is divided into two parts with the source text in the top half of the screen. This is called the split screen editor. You write the translation of the source text in the lower half of the screen. For more information, see Functions in the Split Screen Editor.

To have access to a variety of word processing features, you can branch to the fullscreen editor from the split screen editor. Choose Translation ® Target text ® Fullscreen editor. In this screen, you only see the target text. For more information, see Functions in the Fullscreen Editor.
