Moving Around


The program has some simplifications to avoid the use of the mouse as much as possible. While you are typing in the Translation field, you can move around in the list simply by pressing Ctrl+Up (Arrow), Ctrl+Down (Arrow), Ctrl+PageUp, Ctrl+PageDown, Ctrl+Home and Ctrl+End on the keyboard. The program will move to another item without leaving the translation field. The currently edited item will be saved automatically.

All commands (except the list column sorting) are available from the menu and most menu items have associated shortcut keys. To activate the menu with the keyboard, press F10 and then use the arrow keys to move around. Press ENTER on the menu item you want to execute. To return focus to the program, press ESCAPE one or more times.

Select Next untranslated (Ctrl+U) and Previous untranslated (Ctrl+Shift+U) from the menu to quickly jump to the next or previous empty translation. You can sort the items in the list by clicking on one of the columns. This way the empty items are placed at the top or bottom of the list (depending on sort direction) and you can quickly estimate the number of items to translate and also quickly translate items since you don't have to look for them.
