Detecting language please wait for.......
I'm trying to set up a Text File Type. In the file, lines starting with the character '!' are comment lines that must be excluded from the translation.
Example line that must not be translated:
! Note: Do Not Use "". Line will be cut.
The only option I seem to have is to define an Inline Tag that will set up " lines starting with the character '!' " as a placeholder.
I've tried various regexp, but none seem to work. The most basic one is:
^!.+$
I've also tried !.+ and a few others, but my lines starting with ! keep showing up as translatable. This may have to do with ! being a special character. But escaping the ! has no effect either: ^\!.+$

Triview Translations said:So how do I get segmentation by line instead of by sentence?
As I said above, you can use paragraph segmentation. This is probably the best approach given…
In fact with one small change to your filetype rule because of the ! on its own:
^!.*$
You'll get this:
So quite simple in the end.
Here's a larger section of the file:
! Number 601-699 : SOFTWARE! Number 701-799 : TOOL! Number 801-899 : SPARE! Number 901-999 : SPARE! ***********************************************!TXTDATA! ***********************************************! Category : GENERAL! ***********************************************!-- Error - [1] ---------------------------------
Actions1.Check air pressure settings and pressure.2.Check if reed switch is working correctly.3.Check if cylinder is not blocked.4.Check electric/pneumatic circuits.
Each line should be 1 segment. Each line that starts with a ! must not be translated.
I've done more tests. The trouble starts with the segmentation rules:
If I set segment start = ^ and segment end =$, multiline off, each sentence becomes a segment:
!
Note:
Do Not Use "".
Line will be cut.
According to the regex references I have, '$' should be the end of a paragraph, not the end of a sentence. Or according to another reference (https://regexr.com/), it's the end of a string.
If I set segment start = ^ and segment end =\n, multiline off, the preview shows 0 segments. If I enable Multiline, each line is split into sentences again.
So how do I get segmentation by line instead of by sentence?
As I said above, you can use paragraph segmentation. This is probably the best approach given you said this:

This explains how to do this... it's on the TM and not on the file:

Thanks, that helped.
