Emma Goldsmith wrote: Shift F4 searches down in a document in Word. I did not know about Shift+F4 in Word, and I have been using Word since Word 97. I know for instance how to use complex Regular Expressions, and I can create highly complex Word documents, but I guess I didn't have any need for Shift+F4. Anyway, I was in the habit of simply using Ctrl+F. Moreover, I usually search within PDFs (PDF XChange Viewer) and webpages (Firefox), and that's where and why I am accustomed to using the Ctrl+F function and seeing the "Find Previous" and "Find Next" buttons. I also index files and search the indexes produced by means of a 64-bit file-indexer.

Well, Emma, I followed your advice, but Shift+F4 (i.e. Search up/previous) is very different from Ctrl+F. Explanation: I was searching within the source text for a word, but I again jumped over and occurrence. I remembered your hint about the magic of Shift+F4 and used it this time, but instead of searching in the source text it searched in the target text. In fact, each time I pressed the magic Shift+F4 it only searched the target text and skipped the source text. ...

You're right, Ctrl+F is quite different from F4. The F4 and Shift+F4 "magic" works wherever your cursor is placed (source or target side), regardless of what you have selected in the F&R dialog box. Once you are one side it shouldn't jump to the other side, unless you press F6 by accident (or on purpose). | | | ST/TT cursor position | Sep 1, 2013 |
Thank you Emma for taking the time to help me out. Apologies for hijacking this thread. However, I again searched for a word found in both the source and target texts, this time just to test this thing you've mentioned about the difference the cursor's position makes when using (Shift+)F4. So I hit Ctrl+F, searched in the source text for "nuclear", I then closed the Ctrl+F window and placed my cursor over the target text area and hit Shift+F4, but it still searched in t...

So I hit Ctrl+F, searched in the source text for "nuclear", I then closed the Ctrl+F window and placed my cursor over the target text area and hit Shift+F4, but it still searched in the source text, despite the cursor being placed over the target text column. So I saw that where the cursor was placed made no difference. I can't understand why in the case I mentioned earlier hitting Shift+F4 switched from searching in the ST to searching in TT, but now, when I tried reproducing that case by paying attention to where my cursor is placed Shift+F4 still searched the ST despite it being placed over the TT column.

... I recorded a quick video showing how this works: http://youtu.be/gk9PKiFWLi8 The one thing I forgot to mention was F6. This simply changes the focus from the source to target and vice versa using the keyboard rather than the mouse, which I used in the video. I hope this helps anyway. Regards Paul | | |
Apologies! One can feel the, I guess, understandable tension (inter alia) in your voice by watching the video you just made to clarify the search function. I had no bad intentions. I was under the impression that what mattered was the cursor's hovering position not its active position. I guess I've read Emma's instructions rather superficially, or that my imagination got the better of me. My apologies again! Have a great day! Daniel ... See more Apologies!

Daniel BTW: I tried reproducing the scenario that got me complaining about the search function, but everything seems to work fine now. Weird! Anyway, my sincere apologies for hijacking this thread and for the unnecessary stress that I have caused. I guess that sometimes the visual beats the verbal. Seeing is believing.

Tapsa Local time: 12:57 English to Finnish Merging over paragraph breaks? | Sep 3, 2013 |
I haven't seen any mention of this feature, nor the possibility to edit source segments - I know you can do source editing for a few MS formats but not for e.g Indesign or even plain text. I guess these are not possible in Studio 2014, and if they are not, they probably will never be. My apologies, if I am mistaken Tapsa | | | Great plug-in limited activations | Sep 7, 2013 |
