Hi Harshad,

Currently that functionality is not offered by Integration API, in putting focus on a specific range within the segment content. It is however automatically handled when you are navigating comments from the integrated Comment view within the editor, as you demonstrated in the attached screenshot.

I can tell you that we have identified and put in an API enhancement request with the Studio team for this specific feature, as it is very much needed there and very difficult to attempt to reproduce the same functionality through reflection.

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your reply.

So conclusion is,  we dont have such public SDL API which allows to select/highlight target segment text.

Correct me if i am wrong or request to agree/confirm.

Any idea when such feature will be available in SDL API?

Thanks,

Correct, we don't offer that feature thought the Integration API at the moment.  It is offered through the verification framework where you can specify the TextLocation, but that is a different type of integration...

If you want to go the reflection route, then check out what other developers are attempting: community.sdl.com/.../highlight-select-part-of-source-target-text-in-editor-s-view

:-)

Its not working.

I already commented in provided post. May you missed my comment in this ;-)

just following it now; awesome work!

Anyways thanks for your time.

Any idea, how can we listen comment added, updated and deleted events in custom view?

I want to refresh my custom view one Comment got added or edited or deleted.

Thanks,

Hi Harshad,

You can't subscribe to an event through the Integration API; but you can potentially listen for changes and intuitively deduct when comments are added/removed.

Start by subscribing to the ActiveDocumentChanged event on the EditorController.

Then subscribe to the ActiveSegmentChanged, ContentChanged events when active document changes.

Manage a collection on the document to identify the list of comments associated with each of the segmentPairs (read when the document is loaded).  Call this CollectionA

Note: when you add a comment to the segment, the content changed event is fired. Understanding this, you would only need to get the current list of comments for the active segment pair and then compare it against a comments for the segment mentioned in CollectionA that you are managing on the document.

private void ActiveDocument_ContentChanged(object sender, DocumentContentEventArgs e)
{

[...]

     var segmentSourceComments = segmentPair.Source.GetComments();
     var segmentTargetComments = segmentPair.Target.GetComments();
     var segmentParagraphComments = segmentPair.GetParagraphUnitProperties().Comments;

    // Compare list of comments listed here against what was initially read in CollectionA
    // Identify what was added or removed
    // if different, do something!
    // update CollectionA with the new list of comments for the SegmentPair (if different)

[...]

}

similarly, perform same check in the ActiveSegmentChanged; to cover cases where the content structure of the segment didn't change; I'd need to check but might be that if the scope of the comment is at the paragraph level, then the ContentChanged is not fired!

Hi Harshad,

Please try to start a new thread for each topic question and close existing topics if they have been answered, so that we prevent scope creep in the responses that are not directly related to the original question asked...

Hi Patrick,
