Editing

Doco Translate allows you to review and edit translated content directly within the app. This is useful when machine translation needs refinement, or when you want to apply domain-specific corrections.

Editing Paragraphs

Selecting a Paragraph

Hover over a translated paragraph to highlight it.
Click the paragraph to select it.
A toolbar appears above the selected paragraph with editing options.

Editing Text

Select a paragraph and click the Edit button (pencil icon) in the toolbar.
The paragraph switches to an inline text editor.
Make your changes to the translated text.
Click Save (checkmark icon) to confirm, or Discard (x icon) to cancel.

Note: Editing only modifies the translated text. The original source text is always preserved.

Copying Text

Select a paragraph.
Click the Copy button (clipboard icon) in the toolbar.
The translated text is copied to your system clipboard.
A brief "Copied" tooltip confirms the action.

Re-translating a Paragraph

If you're not satisfied with a specific paragraph's translation:

Select the paragraph.
Use the service selector in the toolbar to choose a different translation service.
The paragraph is re-translated using the new service.
The new translation replaces the previous one.

Tip: This is useful when one service produces better results for a particular type of content (e.g., technical terms, idioms).

Deleting a Paragraph

Select the paragraph.
Click the Delete button (trash icon) in the toolbar.
Confirm the deletion in the dialog.

Warning: Deleting a paragraph removes it permanently from the translation record. This action cannot be undone.

Editing Images

In Reflow mode, you can interact with images in the document:

Translating an Image

Click an image to select it.
Click the Translate button in the image toolbar.
If the image has already been translated, the toggle switches between the original and translated versions.

Deleting an Image

Select an image.
Click the Delete button (trash icon) in the image toolbar.
Confirm the deletion.

Paragraph-Level Service Override

Each paragraph can be translated by a different service. This is useful when:

The default service fails on a specific paragraph.
You want to compare how different services handle the same text.
A particular service excels at certain content types.

When you re-translate a paragraph with a different service, the override is saved for that paragraph. The overall document service setting remains unchanged.
