idml filter

[Selcuk Akyuz]

Hello all CT users,

This will be my first question in this group and many others will
continue :) I am an English into Turkish translator and DVX2 is my
main CAT tool.

Now my question: How can we prevent CT not to import hidden (invisible
or locked) layers in IDML files? I could not find such a setting when
importing the file.

And another question, how can we display hidden characters, e.g. white
space, nonbreaking space, tab. This was possibly a newbie question!

Kind regards,

Selcuk

One thing that came to mind: it would perhaps be a good thing to ask
such questions on the new CT ProZ forum, so that there's some activity
there. After all, you were the one who asked ProZ to create such a
forum!

This rather confidential group could be kept for "internal" matters,
eg. those related to development, promotion strategy etc.

I have no idea bout this.

I couldn't find anything to that effect in Edit > Options or in Edit >
Appearance, so I assume there's no built-in way to do it. The only
workaround I can think of is the use of a special font like what DV &
memoQ users did. Dennis Hay designed such fonts for memoQ, I'm sure
they are still available somewhere.

Cheers,

Hello Selcuk,

I responded to your questions on the CafeTran support Proz forum
(http://www.proz.com/forum/cafetran_support-1154.html). I think it takes
some time before a moderator accepts posts there.

Thanks for joining this forum.

Igor

Can it be that since no moderator has been assigned, Igor's answer is pending somewhere?

I keep seeing my posts grayed in the browser with the message "Posting not
yet approved".

Hi Igor,

I also waited for 2 days until my message was approved here :)
Are you a pro member of ProZ, posts made by pro members are published
instantly. If you don't want to pay for ProZ membership (imo not a
good investment) you can ask the Polish forum moderator (or other
moderators) to "verify" your identity. Check this page
http://www.proz.com/?sp=vid_application
The second option should work for you "You met--in person--a ProZ.com
member who has the authority to verify identities, send a reminder to
that person"

Kind regards,

Selcuk

Hi,

This is surprising: I'm not a paying member either, but my posts
immediately go through. I don't remember my identity having ever been
verified by anyone. Maybe it's because my ProZ account was created at
the very beginning (10 years ago)?

Cheers,

Dominique

Thank you Selcuk for the tip. A few hours of waiting is not that bad after
all. ;)

You are a CAT guru. Gurus have privileges :)

Cheerio,

Possibly your ID was verified when you bought a CAT tool via ProZ TGB

Gee, that's some serious detective work!

Actually, I have never taken part in a TGB deal on ProZ, but I did
purchase a couple of training videos (basically, recordings of
webinars given on ProZ). They were not very expensive (about 10-15
euros each), but I must say I wasn't particularly impressed. Anyway, I
didn't know any credit card payment could be used to "validate" you on
ProZ.

Cheers,

Dominique

Speaking of training videos ...

Do you have anymore questions about CT before you can finish and release the first video?

Glad to help!

Hi Hans,

First of all, my forthcoming CT video will not be a "training" video.
More of a general presentation / introduction to CT.

Thanks for your kind offer! What I need above all is time, but also
help to fight procrastination ;-). Yes, I have to get this video out.

Cheers,

Dominique

Some psychologists cite such behavior as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting or completing any task or decision.
