Background
As a revisor, you can upload existing Word files or XLIFF files in the source texts module of translationQ, or even copy and paste an existing source text.
When your text is imported:
Word files are automatically segmented by translationQ based on the punctuation and paragraph marks in the document.
XLIFF files retain their original segmentation.
However, you may still want to update or override the segmentation yourself.
Keyboard shortcuts
Apart from the buttons that appear when you hover on a segment, and which allow you to add, delete, split and merge segments, you can manage segments using the following keyboard shortcuts:
Keyboard shortcut | Cursor position | Function |
Enter | Beginning of the segment | Add a new segment before the current one |
Within the text | Split the segment in two segments based on the cursor position | |
End of the segment | Add a new segment after the current one | |
Backspace | Beginning of the segment | Merge the current segment with the previous one |
