WDDIXIO options

The button is used to configure the options of WDDIXIO. WDTRAD also features these options. Options not available in WDDIXIO are grayed out.

• The "Translation" tab allows you to define translation options:
  • Authorize "full-text" search : By default, the dictionary search for a resource is of the "begins with", "contains", etc. type.. A more complex search can be performed if this option is checked. This search mode can be used to find sections of sentences used in a different context.
  • Web dictionaries:
    • Google: If this option is checked, the Google API key for Google Translate must be specified.. The translation from Google will be suggested for each search, or only if the resource has not been found in the dictionary ("Use only when no WDTRAD translation is found" option).
    • DeepL: If this option is ticked, you will need to specify the API key for using the DeepL service.. The translation from DeepL will be suggested for each search, or only if the resource has not been found in the dictionary ("Use when no WDTRAD translation is found" option).
    Remarks:
    • You can use the arrows to the right of the list of dictionaries to define which dictionary will be used first. If the translation is found in the first Web dictionary, it will not be searched in the following dictionaries.
    • Remember to read the licenses and terms of use of the translation software used, particularly the invoicing terms and conditions.
    • The option "Protect sequences such as %1, <%1!s!> or even [%variable%] in the strings to translate" allows you to prevent the selected Web dictionary from translating these elements.
  • Customized terminologies: The "Manage terminologies" button lets you manage the dictionary and terminologies.. It is possible to:
    • Generate dictionary statistics: number of resources, author, etc.
    • Reindex the dictionary if necessary ("Reindex" button). This option is recommended when a large number of resources have been modified or added to the dictionary.
    • Manage custom terminologies.
    • Search in the dictionary.
    • See elements recently added to the dictionary.
