View TM Leverage Results

Leveraging the translation memory (TM) occurs automatically as you move through the target segments. This provides you with the best possible segment matches from the TM and is the only search that uses scoring to select the best match.

To view TM leverage results:

  1. In TXLF Editor, click on a source or target segment.

    This populates the columns on the TM Lookup tab of the Editor pane and provides a score, based on TM leverage results.

  2. Review TM leverage results in each TM Lookup column for that segment.
