Now CTE users can view the comments on the closed segments in the right-side panel like the Terminology and the Concordance dialogs. If comments exist for the segment selected/highlighted in the Collection view, the Comments auto-open for the user to view.
The segment editor has been changed to allow a user to expand the source and target details (using the blue “Expand Editor“ arrow button in the center of the editor or hotkey Shift+Alt+E) to make it use more of the segment editor space. While in expanded view, segment editor will overlap the upper section of the segment editor, that would contain either the TM Match details, LTB issue information, or Policheck results.
The left menu now defaults to the icon only form. When you hover over each icon it will expand and overlay the collection details with the text to allow you to select the option. Once the menu option is selected or you move outside of the menu area the overlay will disappear and remain the icon list. Additionally using the pin, you can unpin the menu fully and it will become a single icon in the top left of the display. When you hover over that icon it will become an overlay menu to select the functionality you need. Once a selection is made or you move off the menu the overlay will disappear.
CTE users can add annotations to the source or target segment if the annotation feature is enabled for the current collection. You can find detailed information on this in the Translation View topic Add Annotation section in this help.
Translations saved in the immediately preceding segments were not always automatically available. In such case you can load saved TM matches by clicking Get latest TM matches button or using a keyboard shortcut.
You can perform the following PoliCheck operations by using keyboard shortcuts.
CTE stores the PoliCheck data which indicates a false positive for retrieval when needed for subsequent analytic.
CTE was upgraded to use Angular version 13.
Now CTE users can view the comments on the segments in the right-side panel like the Terminology and the Concordance dialogs. If comments exist for the segment opened in the Segment Editor, the Comments auto-open for the user to view.
Segment level QA Check
Manual QA Check
Microsoft PoliCheck API was integrated to CTE. PoliCheck scan translated segments in CTE collection content for sensitive geopolitical terms. PoliCheck is enabled by default for the CTE collections that require this check.
The Segment level PoliCheck is triggered within the QA Check window while saving a segment and the Collection level PoliCheck is triggered when you submit a collection.
If any PoliCheck issues exist in the segment you can view the Context and Recommendation for each flagged term on blue background in the top half of the Segment Editor. You can also pull out the PoliCheck issues into a separate window in case there is a long list of flagged terms to review.
You can find a detailed description on the PoliCheck feature in the Integrated Microsoft PoliCheck section of the Translation View topic.
A bug which prevented users from doing Concordance search using keyboard hotkey was fixed.
You can now save your preferred settings in User Preferences by clicking the gear icon at the top right corner and selecting the Preferences option.
You can now customize and save the hotkeys (keyboard shortcuts) as per your preferences in the User Preferences. Click the gear icon at the top right corner and select Preferences, then select Hotkeys from the left menu.
Now you can also preview a collection which is created from multiple files.
You can control the file selection for multi-file preview by using the Prompt to select Filename for Multi-file preview setting in the User Preferences.
Click on View Preview to launch the preview for the respective file.
This setting is OFF by default.
Please find more details on these new features using the topic links below.
CTE now captures more data about the segment life cycle.
Navigating between segments and opening a segment in the Segment Editor is now quicker.
Now CTE displays preview for collections which are created from a single file.
You can launch the preview by selecting Show Source Preview [Alt+S] or Show Target Preview [Alt+T] from the Preview menu. You can refresh the target preview to reflect recent changes by selecting Refresh Target Preview [Shift+Alt+T] from the Preview menu.
Preview supports following source formats:
The user interface now displays LTB issues distinctly with a toggle button you can switch to mark an issue as Fixed or Ignored.
If any, the first row requiring action from the LTB issue list is automatically selected.
Any issues that already have their status set are displayed with a grayed-out background so that it is easier to see which issues still require action.
The Ignore All button is disabled if the LTB issues are not identical, and need to be reviewed in the Show All window.
Now the Show All dialog displays all the issues from the issue group (i.e., which have the same Description). You can use check boxes to select which issues to ignore and click Set Selected as Ignored to mark them all as ignored.
You can find more details in the Linguistic Toolbox Check topic in this help.
Support for more than 26 languages was added to CTE.
The infrastructure was updated to support .Net Framework 4.8.
nbsp
character was inserted in CTE segment editor
along with French characters
Support for Soga, Bantu language which is one of the official languages in Uganda, was added to CTE.
Now there are two variants of Sindhi language:
Sindhi language was renamed into Sindhi (India) which is in Devanagari script, and Sindhi (Pakistan) which is in Arabic script, was added.
Now you can use keyboard shortcuts to navigate to the first segment and the last segment in the collection:
Navigate to First Segment [Home]
Navigate to Last Segment [End].
The Configuring Spell-check section in the Spell-check topic was updated in this help with step-by-step instructions for latest browser versions.
The Configuring Spell-check section in the Spell-check topic was updated in this help with step-by-step instructions for latest browser versions.
Now CTE Terminology search results also display Source Term attributes in addition to Global and Target term attributes. You can easily identify the Source Term attributes by the green colored bullets whereas Target Term Attributes are in amber bullets.
You can now adjust the width of the Terminology and Concordance window by dragging the window's left side.
CTE no longer displays the translators name (UPN) for the TM matches and the Concordance search results.
You can now better differentiate between selected and not-selected status of LTB issues by viewing the LTB issue buttons.
You can now close the segment editor without saving the translation, by pressing Ctrl+Q without CTE displaying the Unsaved Changes confirmation dialog.
Now you can press F2 and F9 to enable copying text from a closed segment and then use common Windows keyboard shortcuts to select the text and copy it by pressing Ctrl+C:
QA check feature is now migrated to browser side and QA checks will load fast, which helps to speed up translating.
Now you can use keyboard shortcuts to navigate the Concordance search results:
Now you can copy text from Concordance search results for pasting into segment editor.
The message to save segment with no translation using blank space was updated, as displayed in the screen capture below.
An "End Reached" message is now displayed when you run the Find functionality and it reaches the end of the collection.
The LTB forced check info message now clearly mentions the reasons for re-running the check, as displayed in the screen capture below.
Singapore was added as a new locale for the “Malay” language.
Various browser specific bugs were fixed, related to tag handling in the segment editor using keyboard shortcuts
A new Not Marked Reviewed filter was added for filtering segments which are neither Approved nor Rejected in the collection.
In addition to counting no-translate segments as worked and not needing to be worked, now CTE also treats all pre-translated 100% matches as worked. Previously, only locked pre-translated 100% matches were included in the percent complete shown at the top of the screen. Because of this change, the percent complete value is now more intuitive.
Now a CTE user can insert a tag from the source segment to the target segment by using the Insert Tag by ID feature. You can view tag IDs in the segment editor with the Show minimal segment tags [Ctrl+F3] or Show full + id segment tags [Ctrl+F1]. To copy a tag into a target segment, just press [Alt+<tag id>].
The screen captures below illustrate how you insert paired and unpaired (single) tags by pressing, [Alt+<tag id>]
You can insert a paired tag with tag ID 1 from source into target segment around the text “Eliminar texto entre los dos” by pressing [Alt+1].
You can insert an unpaired tag with the tag ID 1 at the current cursor position.
If any text is selected while inserting an unpaired tag the tag is inserted at the beginning of the selected text.
Note: If a tag already exists in the target segment then, a Tag already exists in Target dialog is displayed. You can use it to move or copy an existing tag. This feature supports tag IDs in the 1-9 range.
You now can navigate the Terminology search results by pressing [Up] and [Down] keys.
You can insert the current highlighted term into the target segment by pressing [Enter].
The Find navigates and opens a locked segment after you click OK in the Open Locked Segment? dialog
Now CTE QA check will report a warning if translation for any segment is saved with unchanged fuzzy match in the collection.
This check is configurable in “QA Check Configuration” and will report a warning after running QA check.
An UnchangedFuzzyMatch warning is displayed in the QA Check Report:
Match values for segments from the MT TM are now highlighted with orange background and also have an additional Machine Translation badge at the bottom of the TM match field.
The title bar of the current active window or dialog now has a distinct green color so that you can easily detect the currently active window.
CTE remembers and highlights the previous active window or dialog once current window or dialog is closed.
The font of the Current match percentage is now visually more prominent and consistent with the font of the TM match selection buttons in the segment editor window.
Fixed various UI bugs which appeared on Edge and Firefox browser
Safari browser was removed from supported browser list of CTE since some issues prevent correct UI behavior in Safari. It is recommended to use Chrome, IE, Edge and Firefox browsers for best experience.
In previous releases, the target of an untranslated segment was auto-filled with a machine translation match when it was the best match available.
Now target fields of untranslated segments are not auto-filled when the best available TM match is a machine translation.
A user can still manually insert an MT match in the target field by selecting Insert TM Match or pressing Alt+PageUp.
CTE collection statistics now displays data which is obtained from TW analysis. The count of translatable words generally matches the count displayed in the TMS task details.
Note, however, that CTE includes words from (untranslated) locked segments while calculating total words. This may result in a discrepancy between TMS and CTE total word count whenever a collection contains locked segments.
.
You can now choose the Do not show this again option to prevent the Ignore All confirmation dialog appearing repeatedly while doing Ignore All for LTB issues.
If inline tags have a ‘disp’ attribute which indicates how they should be displayed, the CTE user interface now displays the ‘disp’ attribute value instead of displaying the tag content. This matches how the XLIFF Editor handles tags with an ‘equiv-text’ attribute in XLIFF 1.2.
For example, internal tags in files from WorldServer contain only a numeric placeholder in curly braces, as shown below. It is not easy to understand the purpose of such tags and how to position them in the target text. Now you can see the tags from the original source content in the CTE.
In earlier releases:
Now:
You can now save target segments with blank data which can be any combination of one or more
whitespace characters including plain space, non-breaking space, tab, newline, etc. A QA Check
WhiteSpaceError
warning is displayed while saving target segments with blank data. Completely empty
segments are not saved.
In previous releases, untranslated target segments were auto-filled only for exact matches. All untranslated target segments are now auto-filled with the best available TM match.
The color highlighting scheme for 100%, Fuzzy and No Matches was enhanced as displayed below:
100% match
Fuzzy Match
No Matches
The same color scheme is consistent in the collection view:
In the Segment Editor, the background color of the non-editable TM match section has been updated, so now it is easy to distinguish it from the editable target section:
Terminology and Concordance search windows are now docked in the right-side panel to unblock the collection view.
You can use existing hotkeys to launch Terminology and Concordance search
The segment Save dialog was updated:
Segment navigation using keyboard was enhanced:
The language direction selection in the TM selection dialog was removed from the user interface. The language direction of the collection is used for TM match searches and saving segments.
A tooltip is now available for TM navigation keyboard shortcuts
A new Length Check section was added to QA Check. Length Check notifies the user when a target segment is longer than the specified length limit.
Keyboard shortcuts for LTB UI controls were added:
The failure error message of LTB Medium check was updated as
“SubmitCheck has failed, LTB must be run at least once, and all issues must have a status.
”
Updated the Accept Review and Reject Review confirmation dialog texts to make it very clear that collection is no longer accessible once the user chooses the Accept Review or Reject Review buttons.
The controls for selecting a TM match in the Segment Editor were streamlined. The field menu which displays the availability of additional matches was removed, and the buttons you can use to scroll the matches were improved. Now the user name and time stamp for the segment update are displayed at the bottom of the TM match window rather than in a separate pop-up.
A bug preventing underlining of terminology match in a segment where a TM match difference was highlighted was fixed.
A bug allowing the Tab key to behave unexpectedly when TM selection dialogue was open was fixed.
The TM match percentages are now displayed in the match navigation buttons.
You can navigate to Next and Previous TM match using arrow buttons in UI or Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Left Arrow and Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Right Arrow shortcut keys.
The TM match field menu was removed.
Internet Explorer browser crash issues were fixed.
CTE editor window now displays also line brakes .
An intermittent Internet Explorer browser freezing issue appearing while changing TM was fixed.
The LTB Show All window was updated for user interface alignment issues displayed when the issue list contains large text.
The Terminology Search dialog window was updated for handling a JavaScript error.
The Linguistic Toolbox Check functionality was updated.
The Linguistic Toolbox Check functionality was updated.
The search result scroll bar now always starts at the top after a search is performed.
Filenames in the Filename Filter window are now displayed in the order that they first appear in the collection.
The About window can no longer be opened multiple times.
The QA Check window now correctly displays a scrollbar for large numbers of errors.
Selecting Save on the Unchanged Fuzzy Match warning now correctly saves the segment.
The Cloud Translation Environment logo was moved to the left menu panel to free up space in the top title bar.
Attempting to save a fuzzy match without making any changes displays a confirmation dialog.
In previous releases, either TM match differences or terminology matches were highlighted, depending on whether the terminology window was open. TM match differences are now highlighted in the segment editor regardless of Terminology search activity. Terms that have Terminology search results are now underlined in the segment editor. Underlined <tags> continue to indicate which tag is currently selected for copying from the source segment into the target segment.
The searched string will now be highlighted in Concordance Search results.
Text matching the Find string is now correctly highlighted.
Translating a locked segment now changes the color of the status bar next to the segment ID from gray to green.
Matches found using Find or Find & Replace are now correctly highlighted in the segment editor.
A non-breaking space pasted into the segment editor is no longer converted to a regular space when using Internet Explorer.
The following CTE settings are now remembered across sessions when using the same browser and machine:
Windows within the CTE reopen at their last-closed location for the duration of the CTE session.
A link to the online Help has been added to the left menu pane, in addition to the gear dropdown menu in the upper right of the CTE.
.
A new Show Target Text Only command is available under View in the main menu. Selecting this command opens a new browser tab containing just the target text from the collection, without any tags or formatting. This command is available only when the collection is fully loaded in the browser.
Concordance Search [Alt+Up] and Terminology Search [Alt+Down] shortcut keys no longer close their respective panes. They now always search any highlighted text, opening the pane if necessary. You can press the [Escape] key to close either pane, as with any window or dialogue in the CTE.
A Carriage Return (CR) (000D
) can now be added at the end of a segment.
Minimizing the Insert Character dialog no longer resizes its title bar.
Opening the Insert Character dialog for the first time no longer logs an HTTP error.
[Ctrl+Insert] now correctly opens the first untranslated segment in the collection.
Deleting the last of several space characters in a row no longer converts them to non-breaking spaces in Internet Explorer.
The cursor is now placed in the segment target editor any time a segment is opened, at the end of any present text.
Items in the TM Selection dialog are now sorted alphabetically within each level.
A new Filename Filter command is available under Tools in the main menu. Selecting this command displays a dialog which lists all source files that make up the current collection. In a list of multiple files, you can select one or several files to filter the collection view, to display only segments from the selected files. If only one file is listed, the select/filter functionality is disabled.
Note: The filter is in effect only when the dialog is open or minimized. The collection reverts to displaying all segments when you close the Filename Filter window.
.
Certain tags no longer prevent the Terminology Search window from being reopened.
Non-breaking spaces and regular spaces now look different with Show whitespace characters enabled [Ctrl+Shift+K].
The Statistics window was visually redesigned.
The counts in the Statistics window have been reorganized and color-coded to visually group certain numbers together. In addition, Translated Segments and Translated Words have been replaced with Untranslated Segments and Untranslated Words to quickly show how much is left to translate.
The Statistics window can still be opened by selecting Tools > Statistics in the left menu.
Concordance Search now defaults to the Sort by Rank option.
CTE now remembers Concordance Search sort or group setting for the duration of the user’s browser session.
Terminology Search now defaults to the Sort by Rank option.
CTE now remembers Terminology Search sort or group setting for the duration of the user’s browser session.
Any open segment now correctly displays its segment ID.
The title row in the Insert Character table is now properly aligned with the keyboard shortcut rows below it.
Opening or closing the segment editor no longer produces a console error.
Opening the Insert Character dialog no longer produces a console error.
The filter dropdown now has an option to change how filter results are displayed. The default setting, now known as Filtered Segments Hidden, has the previous behavior of hiding any segments that do not match the chosen filter. Clicking on the Filter icon toggles it to Filter Results Highlighted, highlighting the matching segments in the collection view without hiding the other segments. If you never change the filter toggle, filtering in the CTE behaves exactly as it did before.
Unfiltered Collection |
Filtered Segments Hidden |
Filter Results Highlighted |

Using the Get Current Tag [Ctrl+Alt+Down] function in Internet Explorer now correctly selects the next tag after inserting the current one, matching the behavior in the other browsers.
Locked pre-translated segments are now included in the word count analysis produced by the CTE. This is now consistent with the approach used by Translation Workspace. The difference was most visible in TMS, which would show a Translated count of 0 for locked pre-translated segments.
The statistics popup now displays word statistics in addition to segment numbers. Statistics can be found under Tools in the left menu pane.
Selecting About in the dropdown at the top of the page displays the current CTE version number.
Inserting the Line Feed and Carriage Return whitespace characters using the Insert Character command now work correctly.
The buttons in the Insert Character dialog have been updated visually to better match the rest of the CTE.
Comments and replies are now sorted by created time, not last-edited time.
Edited comments now correctly display created and last-edited time immediately (they had previously required reopening the comment window to display correctly).
Closing the current segment and opening the previous or next one are now [Ctrl+Up] and [Ctrl+Down] (they were previously [Ctrl+Left] and [Ctrl+Right], which conflicted with jumping between words in the segment editor). The hover tooltip displaying the keyboard shortcuts for these buttons has been updated.
Changing servers in the TM Selection window should now take significantly less time.
On mobile devices, segments can now be opened by long-press in addition to double-tap.
Closing your browser or current tab displays a confirmation dialogue if there are unsaved changes.
Selecting Get Current Tag [Ctrl+Alt+Down] for a tag that already exists in the target will offer 3 options: Move Existing, Insert New Copy, and Cancel.
Selecting Move Existing moves the previous instance of the tag to your cursor location.
Selecting Insert New Copy inserts a second copy of the tag at your cursor location.
Selecting Cancel does not insert the duplicate tag.
Comments now display the times they were created and last edited.
Deleted comments now display the times they were created and deleted.
Opening the Concordance or Terminology window will automatically search selected text.
Selecting Do not show this message again and selecting OK on any confirmation dialogue prevents it from appearing for the remainder of your session. Your choice is not remembered the next time you log into the CTE.
Find and Find/Replace now have a Match whole word only option that will not return partial word matches. For example: searching “me” will match only on the word “me” (and not “home” or “message”).
Windows can now be minimized by clicking on the minimize icon in their title bar. The body of the window will be hidden, allowing for the area behind it to be viewed and interacted with while still keeping the content of the window available when it is maximized.
You can now move windows by clicking anywhere on the title bar and dragging, instead of having to click in the designated area, as before.
