Good tip, very useful. Will this work with XTM? Aug 4, 2016

Thanks, Ricardo. This is very useful. Do you know if the same or similar shortcut can be applied when working with XTM, online?

but there is one problem ... Sep 1, 2017

some language providers prevent you from joining and splitting sentences

it happens with my memoQ, but I suspect it may happen with Trados as well

in this case, you cannot build the correct sentence and are forced to put "utter nonsense" in the TM

and when the project is big, with many translators and revisers, the TM becomes inevitably rubbish
