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 lines 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 lines 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 deleted.

    • The source text has changed since it was last translated.

    Modified lines are highlighted in yellow.

Integration

In the worklist, the numbers of lines with new, modified, and translated status are displayed to the right of each short text 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. If you place your cursor on this color, a tooltip informs you that the line is new, modified, or translated.

In the statistics, the numbers of lines with new, modified, and translated status are displayed.

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 object contains at least one new line.

  • Translated

    Every line in the object has been translated.

  • Modified

    The object contains at least one modified line and no new lines.
