After populating the entire project (by mistake) is it possible to undo that operation?
Thanks.

+ I am using the old version (DVX version 7.5.338)

Ctrl+Z Dec 4, 2011

Hi Dikran,

Press Ctrl+Z several times, e.g., if you have 100 segments in the project press 100 times.

But it works just after the Alt+F5 operation, if you closed the project then the cache is cleared as well.

Just tested in a project with 734 segments, it worked even for such a large project (approx. 10K words). But I use DVX2, it may be different in DVX1.

Yes, I think it does not work on DVX.
I do not have DVX2.
If you populate individual segments manually by clicking successively on F5, you can undo all the changes by hitting CTRL Z as many times as needed.
But after a Alt+F5, CTRL+Z does not help.
Thanks anyway.

Works in DVX1 as well Dec 4, 2011

Dikran,

Tested with DVX1 now, it works. But note that all segment statuses will be cleared.

Hi Selçuk,

I have downloaded DVX a few months ago, so it must be a recent version.
But here it does not work even on a very small file...
I have just tried again.

338 is the latest build for DVX1 Dec 4, 2011

Dikran,

You already have the latest DVX1 build 7.5.0338, and Ctrl+Z is nothing new, it was available in all DVX1 builds as far as I can remember.

AFAIK, you use the standard version, one more reason to use the Professional version is the Guaranteed Matches. If you were using the Pro version, all segments would be saved in the TM with their context. So you could easily Pretranslate the file with those Guaranted Matches.

Anyway, I suggest you to use the Pretranslate function even without Guaranteed Matches.

ok Dec 4, 2011

When I restore with pretranslate, those populated segments remain as they are right? Whereas I want them empty as at the beginning.

Do you want to clear all translations? Dec 4, 2011

Select "All unpainted rows" from the Row Selector, then right click in the grid and select Clear Al Translations. All populated segments will be cleared.

Ctrl+Z does not work when Alt+F5 is used Dec 4, 2011

Sorry for the confusion, I selected all segments and then pressed F5 to populate them, not with Alt+F5

Ctrl+Z works after F5 but not when Alt+F5 is used.
