Hi everybody,

I'm new to Across Language Server v7 and am wondering if it is possible to roll back a completed task.
The problem is that I wanted to block several segments of untranslatable text in a file that is to be translated in multiple languages.

Hi everybody,

I'm new to Across Language Server v7 and am wondering if it is possible to roll back a completed task.
The problem is that I wanted to block several segments of untranslatable text in a file that is to be translated in multiple languages.

Therefore, I included the task "Document preparation" (in German: Dokumentenvorbereitung) in the Workflow and then locked the segments in question via the function "Lock" (or: "Sperren") in crossView (right click on the node => "lock node").

The segments were locked within the document preparation task which I then completed but unfortunately, they were not locked in the task "Translate", which means that they are still editable within crossDesk and are also count by the Report ("number of locked words: 0").

As far as I know, a completed task cannot be undone but perhaps one of you knows some kind of workaround?

I appreciate your help!

All the best,
Holger ▲ Collapse

Maybe by redoing the whole project by changing the name and using the TM you created?
