Hello people,
Does anyone use OmegaT translation memory? If you use it, will you recommend it?

I've used it for several projects and I must say, it's very efficient.

The only thing that prevents me from seriously trying OmegaT is its way of displaying source and target segments, that is target segments below source segments. Is there any plan in the near future to make OmegaT more mainstream in this regard?

Since oT is open source, you could pay your money to a Java developer to have her code the enhancement that you desire.

I prefer it being top-down. Left-right comparison is a bit irritating to me.
@OP
I see that you changed the original question into OmegaT's TM. And the answer is, it works as you expect it to be.

It's somewhat more complicated than that. Your enhancement will not be available in future versions of OmegaT unless you can convince OmegaT's official development team that your enhancement should be added to the program, and you'd have to ensure that the enhancement is implemented in a way that satisfies the development team, including how it actually works and the way in which it is coded.

But if you only want to use the modified version of oT yourself and have no plans to contribute to the open domain?

It's true, as you say, that one can legally enhance/hack OmegaT privately without having to share the enhancement with others, and one can also legally enhance/hack a version of OmegaT and then share that altered version with others (or even sell it!) without the consent or blessing of OmegaT's official developers.
However, there are reasonably regular updates to OmegaT, so if you get a Java developer to patch your current version of OmegaT only, then you're stuck with that version forever.

Not necessarily ... But it will cost you loads of money.

In OmegaT, I machine-translated the documentation for another CAT (BasicCAT).

See bellow:
Dva projekty v Omegat = Two projects in OmegaT
left: ZH-EN created using automatically in OmegaT
right: ZH-CS with manually added subfolders Files
The software creates subfolders:

You can add as many TMXs as you want as source tm; project bilingual data are in TMX; and after generating translated files you get TMXs in three formats for different CATs, see pic right below (ZH-CS_BasicCAT-1.tmx).

The target-below-source layout was the norm for CAT tools 15 years ago (pre-2009 Trados, Wordfast Classic, Metatexis, etc.). Some tools allow both layouts. I seriously suggest giving this layout a try - it will take time to get used to, but in the end you may even find it more comfortable, as your eyes travel a much smaller distance between source and target, and there is no chance of your gaze accidentally drifting one row below or above the current line while doing so. Thus, it reduces your eye strain.
