Topic: Fluency functionality
Poster: Valery Afanasiev

I will be putting in this topic my questions, notes, and comments regarding Fluency functionality and behavior and will be much thankful to Fluency support for their comments.

1. When you leave computer for a while and have some other "heavy" programs like MSWord, Adobe Acrobat, another CAT, etc. open the Fluency, after few minutes of being idle, gets "asleep" not to say "dead" and the only way to "wake it up" is to shut the program down through the Windows task manager and restart. All other applications work OK though. This never happens with CAT's like SDL Studio or MemoQ.

2. When I tried to export Fluency TM into tmx file it worked OK. But I could never open that tmx file by a third party tool like Okapi Olifant or TM import of some other CAT's receiving the code error message like "" is not acceptable marker, the marker should be ";" line 8280, position 63. This would not be a problem if I could open the tmx file in a tool like Notepad++ and correct but I can' because the file is too big to be opened by Notepad++. BTW the error was generated inside the Fluency since the original fiel was imported from "clean" tmx free of any errors.

I would therefore need to locate the bad segment in the Fluency TM Editor and delete it. To do so I need:

(a) A column to the left showing units (segments) numbers like the one in MemoQ TM Editor.
(b) Ability to jump quickly to the desired unit number by simple typing in the unit number in some prompt window and pressing Enter.

3. Filter in the TM Editor by unit creation/change date does not work properly or probably does not exist. If I sort units by creation or change datу I have units created in 2008 followed by those created in 2005 which are followed by those created in 2007. Does this sorting/filter work at all? Filtering by alphabet in either source or target columns works fine.

4. I would like to filter all segments by date, cut the latest, say for last three days, and export only them into tmx but having the entire TM intact. Is that possible? The reason I am asking is that Fluency will be my "second car in the family" used to work with some specific documents whilst the main protion of my work will be done in some other CAT program.

5. Is it possible make Fluency to export TM not only in tmx but also as a tab delimited text like Deja Vu X offers?

More issues/questions will follow once I get stuck with them.

PS: My computer is a HP Elitebook 8460p machine with Intel i7 2.7 GHz CPU and 4 GB RAM, and Windows 7 x64 Pro on board.

Thanks in advance for your kind attention and comments
