Leverage Options

On this page of the Options dialog you can specify the settings for the leverage of previous translations in corresponding string lists and strings. In addition you can select the files to be transferred.

 

Read strings with same...

When leveraging data, Passolo looks for a matching string list in the original project first. For this setting, choose the properties that are to be compared. If you activate the languages option, a string list is only used if it has exactly the same language. If you activate the primary languages setting, only the primary language ID is compared, for example a string list in American English is also taken into account for a string list is in British English.

If you activate the source file option, the full path to the source file has to match. With source file name only the name of the source file has to match.

Get data from strings with same...

Select the properties you want to compare when searching for a matching string in the leveraged string list.

Leverage Source Lists / Leverage Translation Lists

Select the data elements you want to transfer from the relevant list in the original project.

Don't overwrite existing values when leveraging empty values

This option prevents some data elements (Max. length, comment, translation comment) from being cleared. E.g. if this project contains a source text comment, but not the corresponding text in the other project, then the current comment remains and will not be overwritten with the empty comment in the other project.
