from section Opening a file.

segment will appear in a blue background, and your cursor will be in the
target segment by default.
Type or leverage the target segment
from the translation memory.
The target segment will appear.

the segment. Unconfirmed segments are not committed to the TM when you
click Translation Memory > Next Segment
