In TTX Filter: Opening a fully translated TTX in OmT creates multple translations for repetitive segments
Original issue 211 created by velior.ivan... on 2012-02-17T10:16:26.000Z:
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a TTX file that includes repetitive segments and translate it fully e.g. using TagEditor.
2. Open this TTX file in OmegaT.
3. Open any repetitive segment and check the Multiple Translations pane. You will see that this segment is considered an Alternative Translation. Try to change it, and you will of course see that other occurrences of this segment remain unchanged.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output is that all repetitive segments are Default Translations and if you change any of them, all others change as well.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
okapi-pluginForOmegaT_all-platforms_0.16-SNAPSHOT as of Feb 16. OmegaT 2.5.1. Windows 7 64-bit
This is the message I wrote originally in OmegaT's group.
Thank you very much for the long-awaited update of the plugin!
I tried it in OmegaT 2.5.0_4 on a project with a few TTX files which were fully translated and included many repetitive segments.
Basically, each segment was labeled as an Alternative Translation, with other Multiple Translations displaying in the Multiple Translations pane. The problem about this behavior is that it doesn't allow auto-propagation. That is, when you change any repetitive segment, only that segment changes and you have to manually make changes to all remaining occurrences of that segment.
