How to Edit Source Text?
Completed
I tried to edit the source text using the Edit segment menu.
I first unlock the source segment, edited the text, and click Save and got an error message briefly showed up.
Two problems:
1) I could not read the error message first because the View/edit segment window hides part of the error message and the message was displayed only for a few seconds. I could read the error message after changing the view%.
2) The error message says "Set all mandatory custom fields before saving the segment." I do not want to display any custom fields associated with the segment. All I want to do is edit the Japanese source text. Could you please help me with this?

Good afternoon Sachiyo,
I am glad to inform you that we changed the behavior of this case, the error message has been replaced by a modal pop-up asking you to confirm if you really want to apply these changes.
These changes should answer both of your needs.
Kind regards,
Florent.

Hi Florent,
Where is this "Edit segment menu" in the New Editor?
Since I've been enabled the access right to edit source, I just find it's too easy to edit the source texts by accident. Occasionally, I need to copy a text string from source to target. When doing that, I accidentally press a key or click the mouse, the source text can be changed without any warning message.
In fact, I prefer the old editor, where a pencil icon next to the source segment leads to the pop-up window to edit the source.
Kind regards,
Jessica Liu
