Is there a way to do this? Many of the english texts I work on are poorly written which not only results in poor translation but I also have to submit the English updated version as well as the translation. Typically, I look at a Source segment and change it then work on the translation.

I looked for a setting in WF that would allow me to do so but did not find anything.

Never mind... Found it. CTRL + ALT + K

Exactly.
Besides this shortcut, this button can be found in the "Edit" tab. You can also add it to the segment toolbar.
The "+" and "-" buttons in the "Translation" tab allow to expand or shrink source segments, very useful.
