However, this service is not free and you need your own Google or Microsoft account to have access to these tools.

In the editor, the segments will always be displayed in columns, which you can hide or display to your own needs. 


Column (re)order:

 Next to the statistics icon and by default, you will have the following column sequence:

  • the first column to be displayed will be the source text, which is marked with a dot.

titleTrick!

Next to it you will always have a hint of the status of the target language (which can be OK-green-Image Added, PROBLEM-red-Image Added or NEUTRAL-gray-Image Added)

Then other columns will follow:

  • The second column will usually be the target text you will be working on and
  • other additional columns may be loaded, depending on your predefined layout. For instance:
    • other existing target languages (translation layout) or
    • the revisions column (revisions layout).
