Translation Status of Lines

The translation status indicates whether a line in a short text object is new, translated, or has been modified since it was last translated. The status of a line is indicated by its color.

  • New

    This source text is new, which means it has not been translated. The translation line is empty. New texts are highlighted in red.

  • Translated

    This source text has been translated, which means the translation line contains a translation. The translation matches a valid proposal in the proposal pool.

    Translated texts are highlighted in green.

  • Modified

    This source text has been translated. The translation line contains a translation, but the proposal pool does not contain a valid proposal for the source text. The reasons for this might be as follows:

    • The proposal pool does not contain any proposals at all for this source text.

    • The proposal that used to match the translation has been changed or deleted.

    • Developers have changed the source text since it was last translated.

    Modified texts are highlighted in yellow.

Integration

In the worklist, the translation status and the number of lines with that status are displayed to the right of the object to be translated.

In the short text editor, the translation status is indicated by the color displayed in the status line for each source text.

You can also use the statistics to view the translation status of objects to be translated, down to the level of object types.

Translation Status of Objects

The translation status of objects indicates whether an object is new, translated, or has been modified since it was last translated.

  • New

    The objects contain at least one new line.

  • Translated

    The objects are 100% translated.

  • Modified

    The objects contain at least one modified line and no new lines.
