Configuring Auto-Propagation

Auto-Propagation allows repetitive content in the file to be translated consistently, by propagating translated segments. The Auto-Propagation options control which segments are candidates for auto propagation.

To edit the Auto-Propagation preferences from Preferences:

  1. Click Auto Propagation.

    The Auto-Propagation preferences options list appears.

      Note:

    The options listed below are only available when Auto-Propagation is enabled.

  2. Deselect Enable Auto-Propagation to disable Auto-Propagation.
  3. Select Enable Auto-Propagation across all open files to apply auto-propagation to all open files.
  4. Review the Auto-Propagation options to ensure that those required are the only ones selected. The options are described in the following table.

    Option

    Description

    100% Matches

    Overwrites 100% leveraged Translation Memory (TM) matches.

    Fuzzy Matches

    Overwrites partial Translation Memory matches.

    Auto-propagated Matches

    Overwrites all auto-propagated matches. This means that if there are multiple segments that have the same content, then editing one segment auto-propagates the change in all matching segments.

    Edited Segments

    Overwrites edited segments. This allows segments that have been edited to be overwritten by Auto-Propagation.

    Machine Translated Segments

    Overwrites machine translated content.

    Committed Segments

    Overwrites translated content which is committed to the Translation Memory (TM).
