However, regarding your second statement, I thought it did show target text differences. At least the version I'm currently testing (v.6.45 - 2016-06-23) seems to do so. If something has changed, Wf seems to highlight it in yellow, in both the src and trgt text. [/quote]
Maybe it's because I'm using an old version. But here's how you can test it: close the translation (Alt+End), then make an edit in the target text of a segment that have already been added to the TM (without using Alt+down), and then use Alt+down on that segment. It should give you a red border (to alert you that the text in the segment is different from that of the TM), but... does it also highlight the target text difference?
[quote]Just a shame my glossary match highlighting covers them all up, so they become useless. [/quote]
Odd, in my WFC (6.03t), the yellow highlighting supersedes glossary highlighting. Have you tried pressing Alt+left or Alt+right?
