Hello Samuel,

Have you tried it? It looks like the screenshot is from the video. In the video I used the mouse because it is a good tool for viewers to follow what is being explained.

However, I’ve used the system for translating and reviewing and it is super fast:
You can navigate with the Tab key:

1/Click in the first Box and type your translation
2/Press Tab, that will take you to the Save/Update button. Press enter to save/Update
3/Press Tab again and it will take you immediately to the box below.

Super fast, no tag hassle. It doesn’t feel bad at all to use it for translating, and the learning curve with the Tab key is super fast. Not to mention not having to wait for a heavy software to boot and fill up the RAM… 😉 I liked it anyway.

My bests 😊

Thanks for bringing that up!
I don’t think there’s a deadline on the Wordfast Studio reward though.

For those interested in the conference, there will be plenty to learn about Wordfast Pro, Wordfast Anywhere and handling various file types. And believe me, Portuguese food is tasty 😉! And I’ll be able to see you there.

Thanks - this keeps happening during the translation of a large doc in WF Classic... I must be accidentally pressing a shortcut as I work and activating the shading, which deactivated the colours of the segments!

Topic: How to locate wordfast.ini in Wordfast Pro 3 for MAC OS
Poster: Luigi D'Acunzo

Hello,
This is my working enviroment now:
PC with windows 10 + Wordfast Pro 3
MacBook Pro with High Sierra + Wordfast Pro 3 (MAC OS version, no Parallels/Microsoft)

I edited the Wordfast.ini file on the PC in order to redirect WF to my .wf_workspace folder on OneDrive. Now I would like to do the same on MBP, so that both versions of WF can use the same .wf_workspace, but I can’t find the file Wordfast.ini.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Hello,

I'm working with the latest release.

I'm having issues with the copy source shortcut. If I click on the icon I get it copied, while if I try to do it with the shortcut I get nothing, I mean nothing changes.

Do you have any idea how to manage this?

Thanks

I have machine-translated the local file, which contains all the sentences of the "all bundles".
I made a presentation in Czech:

The good thing would be finding a competent translator to have the job done, rather than scrounging free services (from anyone who is just able to type) that will undoubtedly lead to haphazard results, as is quite common in "community translation".

Should I remind you that our whole industry is based on companies not doing what Wordfast is trying to do with its UI?

I agree with the second statement. As for the first, you actually get something in return, so it's not really "scrounging free services", although IMO crowdsourcing (what will become a patchwork) translation is always a bad idea, especially if it involves a professional, paid-for product (i.e. we're not talking about fansubs for an anime or wiki articles for a video game...).

I'd rather get paid for the professional service I offer. This isn't a hobby, at least for me it isn't.

That a for-profit company finds the temerity to solicit what amounts to free services from the very industry it sells its product to is outright disgusting. Talk about business ethics...

Hi

Putting things in perspective, I think it’s healthy to remind that the CAT tool to which I’m referring here (Wordfast Anywhere) is entirely free. So basically, they’re rewarding users of a free tool for their contribution work with actual rewards. I can’t see the catch…
Along the same lines, ProZ.com has been using a similar system to localize the website, off-course it could always be improved.

It is a strategic choice for companies to decide if they will contract translators or crowdsource. With the latter, translators will get rewards and publicity. Then translators can decide too whether one or other is worth their time and efforts (not to mention ridiculously low pricing job offers that we can come across rather often on the platforms…).

My bests to all.

Wordfast Anywhere is free but UI translation is for reward for 3 translator for one target language.

I translated "one bundle" for ProZ.com. I received from Czech localisation team leader one XLIFF file. I was WFC licenced user. I asked for help Aleksandr Okunev and he wrote a taglist
(XML XLIFF taglist zip 2.5 kb) for his tool Tortoise Tagger.

[url removed]

It worked in MS Word 2000 (I had to go back from MS Word 2003). The tagger enabled to translate DOC with Wordfast Classic. The translating was made localy.

In XLIFF and in tagged DOC was no repetition of segments. The reward was only an information I was member of localisation team. That was all.

On-line localisation of UI WFA: There are 92 segments with repetition.

[url removed]

/V 1690 segmentech je 1598 jedinečných segmentů (92 segmentů se opakuje)./

In 1690 segments are 1598 unique segments (92 segments repeats).

Problems Using WordFast 5 on two Macs

I mainly use WordFast on my laptop during the school year but with school out now I got the extra license and installed it on my desktop. I incurred problems connecting to my TM and it even made a problem with the connections to the TMs in the documents I was working on on my laptop. My TMs are saved on the desktop of my laptop, but it's connected to iCloud, which my desktop is as well.

Anyone have any help on how to make it work so that I can sit down and work at either computer, with all the connections right and saving all my work and everything ?

I used to use google drive without problems but since they updated to the 'file stream' I began having huge delays using the cloud-based TMs and glossaries.

The work around while WF fixes this is to export a GLP, which gets uploaded to the cloud. Then download that glp and run the files locally from your computer.

Okay, thanks. So are you saying that your TMs are stored in google drive (or like I could store mine in iCloud Drive?) but right now you're saying that's problematic? Also, I don't know what a GLP is...
