   To learn more: See Help about the Create new LiveDocs settings window.

5. Click OK.

   The LiveDocs settings resource appears in the list at the top. Its check mark will be checked - it will be ready to use in the project.

Always clone the default LiveDocs settings: You can't edit the Default LiveDocs settings resource. If you need a resource that you can edit, make a copy of (clone) the default one.

To use a LiveDocs settings resource, you need to add it to the project. You should add a LiveDocs settings resource before you send documents to translators. A project always has exactly one LiveDocs settings resource.

If you do not make a change, memoQ will always use the Default LiveDocs settings resource for the project. To use another:

1. In the list of LiveDocs settings, find the LiveDocs settings resource you need.
2. Click its check box on the left.

   The LiveDocs settings resource moves to the top of the list. The check box of the previous one will be cleared.

Normally, memoQ will take LiveDocs settings resources from your own computer. However, you can use online LiveDocs settings resources from memoQ servers that you have access to.

To view the LiveDocs settings resources from a memoQ server or from a memoQ cloud:

1. On the Project ribbon, there is a memoQ server icon, or a memoQ server dropdown. Click the icon or dropdown.

Type or choose the address of the memoQ server, and click the Select button.

You may need to log in to the memoQ server: If you have not used the server before, the Log in to server window opens. Type your user name and password for that server, and click OK.

2. memoQ will show the LiveDocs settings resources from that server.

   You must have permission for the LiveDocs settings resources: It is not enough to have access to the memoQ server. To use a LiveDocs settings resource, you need at least Use permission over the LiveDocs settings resource itself. If you are not sure, contact the owner of the memoQ server.

3. To use a LiveDocs settings resource from a memoQ server, simply check its check box.

If there are too many LiveDocs settings resources on the list, you can filter the list. At the top of the LiveDocs settings tab, there is a Name/description box.

Type a word or two in the Name/description box. It will narrow the list immediately to those LiveDocs settings resources that have those words in their names or descriptions.

To sort the list by a detail: Click the header of the column you need. For example, to sort the list by name, click the Name header at the top of the list.

You can export a LiveDocs settings resource into an .mqres file. An .mqres file is an XML file where memoQ saves resources like segmentation rule sets, QA option sets, LiveDocs settings etc. These are called light resources because they don't contain a large amount of linguistic data.

To export a LiveDocs settings resource:

1. In the list, select the LiveDocs settings resource you need to export.
2. Under the list, click Export. A Save As window opens.

   Or: Right-click the LiveDocs settings resource. From the menu, choose Export.

3. Find a folder and a name for the file, and click Save. memoQ will export all details from the LiveDocs settings resource in the file.

   You can also import a LiveDocs settings resource from a .mqres file. When you import an .mqres file, memoQ will always create a new LiveDocs settings resource.

Because memoQ saves all kinds of resources in .mqres files, you need to make sure that your .mqres file contains a LiveDocs settings resource.

To import a LiveDocs settings resource from an .mqres file:

1. At the bottom of the LiveDocs settings tab, click Import new. An Open window appears.
2. Select the .mqres file. Click Open.
3. The Import new LiveDocs settings window opens. It's the same as the Create new LiveDocs settings window.
4. memoQ will pick up the name of the LiveDocs settings resource from the .mqres file. However, you can give it a new name, and type a new description, too.
5. Click OK.
