Lock a Segment

You can lock a segment to prevent any further changes to that segment. The best time to lock a segment is when the translation is complete and the reviewer has confirmed the content after proofreading it. The Commit action still updates the translation memory (TM) with the target segment content.

To lock a segment:

  1. In TXLF Editor and on the Translation tab, select the segment to lock.
  2. Click Lock Segment.

    The is displayed in the segment Status column to indicate the segment is locked.
