Hello everyone

I would greatly appreciate your help with two questions:

1. Can I scale up the fonts used for the target and source segments and fix them at the selected value?
2. Can simply I highlight the parts I want to revisit later rather than leave a comment?

Thank you

1. Go to Tools menu>Appearence/locations category
2. Marking segments can probably be done using the Find/replace feature. Otherwise you use Enter only so that the semgnt is not confirmed, then use Edit>GotoNext settings to browse through unconfirmed segments at the end.

Hope it helps,
Philippe

Hi Etienne

Many thanks for your help:)
One more question, if you allow me. Currently MQ doesn't fill the target segment with matches (I have to use ctrl+space to get the match). What can I do about it?

Translation menu>Pre-translate, then set the appropriate settings to your liking.
In the Tools menu, click Autopropagation and set the suitable settings.

I will try to find a video introduction to MemoQ, it was very interesting and free, but I can't remember where I viewed it. I will post the link if I find it.

A very serious alternative to Trados if you ask me.
Enjoy,
Philippe

Great!

That's true. Fantastic software. I am seriously thinking of switching to it from my current major CAT tool, which is Trados.
