How to change segment pair attributes - IsLocked - and refresh the editor screen ??

A few answers:

1. Use s.Target.Properties.IsLocked = true;
   1. I have run into this same thing.  You can't update the segment pair object (even though the Property says it can be set) but you can lock the target segment which will give you the effect you are looking for.
2. I haven't found a way to do this either.  I just tell the users to scroll up and down real quick to see the changes... :(
3. I don't know how to do this either.

Hi,

  I don't know if this is still an issue, but this worked for me. First I set up a generic filter:

   class GenericSegmentFilter : IDisplayFilter
    {
        private Func<ISegmentPair, bool> Evaluator;

        public GenericSegmentFilter()
        { }

        public GenericSegmentFilter(Func<ISegmentPair, bool> evaluator)
        {
            Evaluator += evaluator;
        }

        public bool EvaluateRow(DisplayFilterRowInfo rowInfo)
        {
            return (rowInfo.IsSegment && Evaluator(rowInfo.SegmentPair));
        }
    }

and in your main code:

    EditorController ec = SdlTradosStudio.Application.GetController<EditorController>();
    Document activedoc = ec.ActiveDocument;

    // to lock your segments 
    foreach (ISegmentPair isp in activedoc.SegmentPairs.Where(sp => MySpecificCondition(sp)))
    {
        ISegmentPairProperties spp = isp.Properties.Clone() as ISegmentPairProperties;
        spp.IsLocked = true;
        activedoc.UpdateSegmentPairProperties(isp, spp);
    }

    // to filter for locked segments - this will trigger a refresh as well
    activedoc.ApplyFilterOnSegments(new GenericSegmentFilter(s => s.Target.Properties.IsLocked));

Hope this helps.

Has anyone figured out how to do this in the batch task API? We're struggling with the same issue there, but obviously ActiveDocument is not available there.

Hi Remy,

Can you please take a look at this source code from Anonymizer plugin? https://github.com/sdl/Sdl-Community/blob/master/Anonymizer/Anonymizer/Process%20Xliff/AnonymizerPreProcessor.cs

https://github.com/sdl/Sdl-Community/blob/master/Anonymizer/Anonymizer/Batch%20Task/AnonymizerTask.cs

Here you have an example on how you can parse an xliff file using a batch task. 

Kind regards,

Hey Andrea

We've based our tool on your Anonymizer. But the locking function does not work:

        public override void ProcessParagraphUnit(IParagraphUnit paragraphUnit)
        {
            base.ProcessParagraphUnit(paragraphUnit);
            if (paragraphUnit.IsStructure) { return; }

            foreach (var segmentPair in paragraphUnit.SegmentPairs.ToList())
            {
                var segmentVisitor = new SegmentVisitor(_patterns, _includeTagContent);

                segmentVisitor.ReplaceText(segmentPair.Source, ItemFactory, PropertiesFactory);

                if (segmentVisitor.ShouldLockSegment)
                {
                    segmentPair.Properties.IsLocked = true;
                }
            }
        }

Hey Andrea

Any idea here? 

Hi Remi,

Do you implement OnFileComplete method in the class which inherits from AbstractFileContentProcessingAutomaticTask?

If not please add this method because it will save the changes on the document.

MAGIC!!!

That seems to work. Thanks a lot!

We'll post our code on GitHub and the Plugin in the Appstore as usual.
