Topic: Characters Counting in Segment
Poster: Stepan Konev
Post title: \N = new line
Hi Sarah,
Unfortunately, I cannot help with a magic regex combination, but I would like to propose a workaround.
memoQ shows the total number of characters in its downmost panel, last section.
It may look like this: 131+1/157+1
where
131 stands for the total number of chras in source,
157 stands for the total number of chras in target,
+1 stands for the total number of tags (if any) in source or target.
So you can see the chars count on the go, witout using QA.
On the other hand, \N indicates "new line".
I would split the \N segment for translation, keeping in mind that the newly splitted segment with \N may have 42 chars as a maximum (40+"\N"), and then (once translated) merge these two segments back again.
Definitely, not that comfortable as it might be with regex or other solution, but still you can see the number of characters on the go.
