Hello colleagues

Hello colleagues

I have finished a translation with which I used SLDX, in some segments the source text has one "red slash" that gets positioned at a different place of the target sentence ... I don't know what to do with it because I can't copy or paste it, the red slash appeared automatically with the TM results or does not appear at all with automatic TM results in SLDX. When I pass the cursor over it, sometimes it appears "xref" or "newline"! I'm not really used to work with SLDX and this is the first time it occurs to me! Can anyone help me?

Thanks a lot!

The red slashes are tags. Use View - Tags... to change how they are displayed and Format Paint if you need to change their position in the target text.

I have a Getting Started with SDLX document that helped me a lot when I first used SDLX. If you contact me directly I can email you a copy.

It worked! I have to send it to my client today! About the copy, it would be very helpful if you could send me ... I'll send you a direct e-mail message.

Best Regards!
