I've been testing MemoQ and have version 3.5.16. So far I am enjoying the software. One problem: I can't seem to join or split segments. Those two functions are always blanked out in the Edit menu. Anyone else having a similar problem? | | | this is true with some bilingual formats | May 11, 2009 |
...due to technical restrictions. What type of document are you translating? If you work with Star Transit projects for example, joining and splitting is disabled. Best regards, Gergely | | | depends on the file format | May 11, 2009 |
This depends on the file format and whether you are working in a server environment with simultaneous proofreading. I suspect you're working on a TTX file. As the segmentation there is done by Trados, MemoQ does not dare to change it (to ensure compatibility). For most other formats, joining and splitting segments will work. | | | Gary Hess Local time: 04:11 Deutsch > Englisch + ... THEMENSTARTER transit project | May 12, 2009 |
Thanks! It's a Transit project, so that would explain what is happening. | |

Filter vs. joining/splitting | May 31, 2009 |
Hello, I really adore the Filter function. However, when I activate it, I am not able to join and split segments. This is for plain Word files, not for Transit as above. So when I find segments that should be joined/split, I need to reset the filter, do the joining/splitting and set up the filter again. Is this a bug or a feature? | | | Mikhail Popov Montenegro Local time: 04:11 Englisch > Russisch + ... Probably a feature | Jun 11, 2009 |
Vitor, most probably its a feature. I also tried to do this and failed. I think it was intentionally made, because when filter is activated, normal sequence of segments is changed and you see just segments 1, 3 and 5 (for example). And joining works only with neighbor segments. So you can't join segment 1 and 2 if your segment 2 is hidden. Why splitting isn't working - no idea, may be the same reason. | | | yes, it is a feature | Jun 12, 2009 |
Hello All, Allowing split and join in filtered segment lists could cause serious problems, so we need to prevent it. BR, Gergely | | | Nasty buggy program | Nov 3, 2011 |
I vote for "BUG" and only one of many in this annoying program. I'm working on a document imported from a memoq bilingual file and can't join segments. Incredibly irritating and simply not good enough for a program that costs this much. | |
