Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Visual Translator

> ## Entering a translation

> Select a target suggestion from the Glossary window or type a target phrase directly in the target phrase fill-in area, then press RETURN. The Visual Translator saves the target phrase.

> To edit a translation, use the Cut, Copy, and Paste buttons. To enable these buttons, select a cell in the Target Phrase column. The Visual Translator cuts and copies the entire contents of a selected cell. You can then manually edit the text using the keyboard.

> To view the translation of a message in context, click the View button.

> You can view any text phrase in a separate, larger dialog box by double-clicking on any field of the Translation tab folder. Figure 3–2 shows the Long String Translator dialog box.

> Figure 3–2: Long String Translator dialog box

> The Long String Translator dialog box allows you to view and edit text phrases. If a string is longer than thirty-four characters and does not fit in the Translations tab folder, you can view it in the Long String Translator dialog box. The source string displays in the Source String viewer. The target string displays in the Target String viewer. You cannot edit the source string, but you can edit the target string within the Target String viewer.
