Sort Segments

Follow these steps to sort segments on source/target text or on segment translation status.

About this task

It is also convenient to sort segments according to translation status when you want to keep all untranslated or unconfirmed segments together.

  1. Select View → Sort Segments ([F3]) from the main menu or click the Sort Segments button on the top toolbar.
    The Sort Segments dialog is displayed:
    Sort Segments Dialog
  2. Select how to sort segments
    • Choose Sort on Column Text Content if you want to sort segments on Source Column or Target Column text.
    • Choose Sort on Segment Status if you want to sort segments according to their translation status: Translated, Untranslated and Confirmed.
  3. Optionally, select the Sort Descending checkbox if you want to sort segments in reverse order.
  4. Click the Sort Segments button.

Results

Translation view is updated, displaying segments in the requested order. Sorting remains in effect until the Sort Segments dialog is reopened and the Clear Sorting button is clicked.
