Hi,
I have created a project in memoQ using two identical DOC files.
I've translated some segments in the first file and then opened the second file. I thought that my translations would get propageted to the second document but this never happened.
The TM shows 101% hits but I have to manually insert them.

I have created a project in memoQ using two identical DOC files.
I've translated some segments in the first file and then opened the second file. I thought that my translations would get propageted to the second document but this never happened.
The TM shows 101% hits but I have to manually insert them.
In the Auto-propagation settings the option "Allow auto-propagation" is checked (propagate backward and forward).
Shouldn't memoQ auto-propagate translations in this case?
The second scenario is proofreading a document. I had two very very similar documents and changed some translated segments during proofreading. I expected that memoQ will propagate my changes between documents but nothing happened.
Has memoQ the capability to auto-propagate between several documents?
Best regards,
Piotr ▲ Collapse

Create a view (that is merge you docs in one view) if you want auto-propagation to apply to both documents.
Hope this helps.

TOPIC STARTER
Great tip! (I've never used "views" before)
Thank you, Arkadi.
I still find myself trying to do everything like I did in Trados 2007 but it seems I need to switch my way of thinking to another dimension.

You can do 2 things.
1. As Arkadi suggested, create a view of all the files - they will be virtually glued together and the auto-propagation will work like a charm. Of course, the real files will be also updated, so you don't have to worry about that.
2. If you don't want to work on views, you can always translate file 1 and then pre-translate file 2. It's a work-around rather than a solution.

It is a design decision - any change affects only the "visible" (be it a grid or documents selected in the project overview). It might be also worth mentioning that the principle also applies to filtered views - if you exclude some segments from the display by filtering, global changes will not affect those segments.

Because of this decision (which seems sensible until it comes to repetitions, where I don't want to see them but I want them to change!), I created a "view" where repetitions were excluded (except the first instance).
Could I have done so with filtering? Not sure filtering is as sophisticated as views, and because of what you said, I didn't want to risk it.
Anyway after "confirming", I left views and returned to my file. Many things had not propagated!! Soooo..... not all repetitions are considered propagationable huh? (see image).
I think tags prevent. Anything else prevents?
