light green: segment was auto-propagated
no color: you changed the auto-propagated transition

28

A

adapts only unconfirmed segments below the current segment in the bilingual file

edit settings: file tab > options > editor > auto-propagation > Auto-propagate exact matches to confirmed segments + Confirm segment after auto-propagating an exact match

edit direction of propagation: starting position > auto-propagate form > first segment in document

29
Q

lock and thus ‘protect’ a segment against being changed > shortcut

A

Ctrl + L
to unlock press again

30

A

save target as

32
