Review the Subtitle Translations
In order to review the translated subtitles, ensure you have the workspace set appropriately - displaying the information that is important to you.
The new Online Editor offers various pre-set workspace views accessible through the View/Workspace menu. While the default view is suitable for most cases, you can customize and adjust elements based on your preferences.
For instance, if you prefer to just watch the video with translations displayed on top, and have the Timeline module visible, you can select the "Player and Timeline" pre-set.
On the other hand, if the Timeline module is not essential, you can remove it from the screen by navigating to View and deselecting "Timeline."
This allows for more screen space to focus on the List Module, where translations and timecodes are displayed.
You also have the flexibility to adjust the position of the active subtitle, allowing you to specify the number of subtitles to display before or after the active title.
Navigating through each of the titles can be done with a mouse click within the List Module, clicking below the green highlighted (active) title will progress through each title.
Alternatively, you can use the default keyboard shortcuts to move up/down the titles - PageUp / PageDown keys.
Make Changes
If the settings of your task permit, you have the ability to directly modify the Subtitle translation text or adjust the In/Out Cue.
There are several approaches to accomplish this, and the most efficient method is by utilizing Keyboard shortcuts. However, you can also make adjustments using a combination of mouse and keyboard inputs.
Leave Comments
You can leave comments on specific titles using the Comments Module.
To add a comment:
Open the Comments Module by clicking the small "up" arrow, or by pressing the default keyboard shortcut 'Alt + C'.
This will activate the text cursor, allowing you to begin typing your comment.
Important: Ensure you press the Enter key after typing to submit your comment.
Each comment will be linked to the specific title, and will automatically include your initials and a timestamp.
You can navigate and jump directly to titles with comments, using the < and > arrows
If you’ve submitted a comment in error, it can be deleted.

Approve or Reject
Depending on your task settings and workflow, you may have the option to either approve or reject the task.
If you choose to approve the file, the task will be closed, and the next task in the workflow will become available.
On the other hand, if you reject the file, it will be sent back to the previous task for the assignee to make the necessary changes. They will be able to see any comments you have left at the job level or on specific subtitles. Once the changes are made, the task will be reopened for you to review again.
