Hi,

I am writing a comparative essay on content management in DVX and Transit NXT and I can't seem to find anything in Transit's alignmnet manual about whether it is possible in some way to edit/split/join/delete source language segments in alignment mode. It is possible in DVX.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Yes Jun 9, 2010

Yes, it is possible to do all this.

(But you're writing a comparative essay about Transit NXT without having the program?)

editing/splitting/joining/deleting source segments in Transit's alignment mode Jun 10, 2010

Yes I have access to it at my university. Can you advise me on how do I modify source segments in alignment mode as I wasn't able to do it?

Maybe a settings or version issue? Jun 11, 2010

That's weird. When the alignment mode is on, I can edit the source segments as much as I want. I don't need to do anything, I just edit the segment directly.

And all the other options (delete/add a segment, join, split) work for the source segments as well and are immediately visible in the toolbar and in the right click menu, that's why I first thought you didn't have the program, sorry.

I have Transit NXT Pro, maybe the alignment feature is different in other versions

Are you sure you have read the "Alignmant Tool" document, available for a free download at Star website? The issues you speak about are described in detail in Section 4.2.3, p. 25 of the English version.
