Propagation

Hi,

Propagation is not working properly inside a document. Most of the time, I need to access the empty translation box to trigger the TM lookup so that the 100% TM match is applied.

Fix it please.

  Hi Pascal,

   

  Are you working on a standard project or codyt project?

   

  For a standard project, I know two methods to automatically copy the 100% matches into the target segment box.

   

  1. Go to Word Count > Count words, 

  

  Select "Pre-translate from memories at this or higher similarity: 100%". 

  

  2. Open the New Editor, select Actions > Batch Actions > Translate from memory.

   

  

   

  Auto-propagation means that whenever you save translated segment(s) the system instantly translates all identical source texts anywhere else in the text. (https://wordbee.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/216110708-Auto-propagate-translations)

   

  I hope this reply helps. 

   

  Kind regards,

  Jessica Liu

  Hi Jessica,

  Thank you for your reply. I am working on a standard project.

  I don't think I have access to your first method, not being the project manager.

  Regarding your second suggestion, I do it when I start working on a file, of course, but I'm talking about auto-propagation.

  If there are two identical segments on a same page, when I have translated the first one, most of the time, I see that the second one is still empty. I then need to manually copy-paste or use a TM lookup to apply the 100% match. This is the bug I am asking you to fix.

  Hi Pascal Ladalle, 

  I am sorry for the inconvenience. 
  Can you check that the propagation is enabled on your document and that the configuration is correct.
  
  To open the setting panel, click on the icon on the top right corner
  

  And check your configuration in the "Manual and automatic propagation" section 
  
  If the problem persists, please contact us
  Have a nice day, 

  Mikael

  Ps: Thanks Jessica to have reply has this issue :)

  Hi Mikael,

  My propagation settings are the same as your screenshot, and the Auto-propagation icon in the bottom left corner of the translation window is green.

  Triggering manual propagation with the upper-right button on an individual segment does not work either. I just tried with the example attached below.

  
  When I click on segment 295 for instance, the TM lookup occurs and the 100% match is applied. But this is not what I call auto-propagation.
