    • User properties might not be there: You must be allowed to edit your user properties, otherwise the User properties fields will not appear. It is the server administrator who can give you this permission in your user account. In memoQWeb, administrators must open the Admin pages, click the Users tab, edit the user account, and check the User can edit information check box.

    Language pairs might not be there: Similarly to your general details, you must be allowed to edit your language pairs, otherwise the Language pairs table will not appear.

In the General options section, you can do the following:

  • Choose the display language for the web interface in the Display language drop-down list.
  • If you want to use the web interface with the default locale settings for the current display language, click Same as display language under Locale. Otherwise, for example, if you wish to see the interface in English, but you are based in Italy, select your locale. Locales define number and date formats, currencies, etc.
  • If your time zone is different from the time zone that the server is using, choose your time zone from the Time zone drop-down list. If you do not choose a time zone, memoQWeb displays time information according to the time zone of the server.
  • To limit the list of languages to your favorite languages, check the check box Limit favorite languages, then click the Select button to select your favorite languages. The languages are selected as in Term base settings > Languages. This setting is also available on the Admin page and works the same way.

    Note: The languages offered in the language selection dialog depend on the favorite languages that have been selected on the Admin page for memoQWeb: If no favorite languages are set for memoQWeb then all languages available are displayed. If favorite languages are set then only those favorite languages are displayed.

  • The languages selected on the Profile page are the visible languages when a TB entry is edited in full edit mode until you choose otherwise.

In the memoQWebTrans options section, select how many segments you want to see on one page from the Page size in the translation grid drop-down list. By default, the size is 50 rows. Choose the option to show the translation progress percentage in the Document list, based on Segments, Words or Characters.

In the QTerm settings section, set the page size: 20, 50 or 100 entries per page. From the Entry page size drop-down list, choose the entries per page. You can also set the page size on the Browse terms page in the navigation panel below the entry list.
