Hi all
I have a big project to translate (about 90.000 words); however, many segments are pretranslated (grayed-out) and I don't have to modify (nor to review) them.
As the 'Translate to fuzzy' (Alt *) doesn't work (it opens the next pretranslated segment), I wonder if there is a way to jump directly on the segment NOT pretranslated.
Thanks

Bruno

Use proper keyboard shortcuts Jan 15, 2008

Open first no 100% = CTRL+ALT+HOME
Set/close open next no 100% = CTRL+ALT+(NUM+)

You can download the list of (nearly) all keyboard shortcuts here.

It doesn't work Jan 15, 2008

Thanks Jerzy
it's the first way I tried, but it doesn't work.
This method works if I have translated the other segments, but in my case, I received a file 'pre-translated' (I mean, with the Italian segments already filled and grayed out).

Grayed out? Jan 15, 2008

It seems than, that the segments were precessed with X-Translate/ContextTM.
Go to Tools - Options - Protection and check if the protection for such segments is switched on.
If not, switch it on.
