Copy a Tag

Translated content retains the formatting of the source content, so tags are an important element in the final translation. You can copy tags from the source to the target for formatting and indentation accuracy.

Note:

Use Preferences > General Preferences > Tags to configure tags as full-sized or shortened.

To copy a tag:

Open a file.
In TXLF Editor and on the Translation tab, select a segment with tags.

Note:
When the selected segment contains tags, the first tag is automatically selected. Red indicates selection.
Choose one of the following actions:
- Click a source segment tag and drag it to the corresponding location in the target segment or press Ctrl-Down.
- Click a source segment tag, then click in the corresponding target segment location and click Copy.
The target segment, highlighted in pink, contains the copied tag at the cursor location you selected in the target segment.
(Optional) Click Previous Tag or Next Tag to select another tag and repeat the process.
