Bonjour,

J'utilise Wordfast pour la première fois et je voudrais traduire 2 phrases en une. Comme Wordfast prend les phrases 1 à 1, comment puis-je avoir les 2 dans le même segment? J'ai esayé avec l'icône "expand", mais rien ne se passe...
Merci pour votre aide!

Il devrait se passer... Apr 17, 2007

...à condition qu’il n’y ait un ENTER entre les deux propositions. S’il y a, essayez de l’annuler et ensuite allongez de nouveau. J’espère que ça va.

Non, il n'y a pas ENTER entre les 2 phrases. Je suis désespéree car apparemment, cet icône "expand" ne fonctionne pas du tout (j'ai essayé à plusieurs endroits). Où faut-il mettre le curseur et à quel moment faut-il cliquer sur l'icône?

Force segment Apr 17, 2007

Essaie de sélectionner le texte qui doit former le segment et utilise la commande Force segment. Ca devrait marcher.

Super, ça a effectivement marché en sélectionnant les 2 phrases et en forçant la segmentation! Mille fois merci!

How to use force segment as you work? Apr 18, 2007

I thought Dan's solution might be the answer to my problem as I'm currently translating a file I've converted from pdf and often end up with the sentences split in strange ways. However, if you only realise that the sentence is split when you start a segment, how can you use force segment then? I have tried, but it messes up the delimiters or tells me it can't use text within a segment....

Many thanks

Claire

Ctrl+Del Apr 18, 2007

Hi Claire,

You need to restore the source segment before using the Force Segment command. To do this, press Ctrl+Del when your segment is open. The source text will be restored and the segment will be closed. Now you can select the text and use Force Segment (Shift+Alt+Down). This command deletes any separators inside the selection.

I hope this works,
Dan
