Sends: Filter Events

Many text units contains inline codes, span of data that should be left untouched inside a translatable text, for example the tag <b> in a HTML paragraph. This steps allows you to make different types of removal of those codes.

Parameters

What to remove -- Select the type of data to remove. A code is made of two parts: its markers (always there) and its content (optional). For example, an inline code in XLIFF can be like this: <bpt id="1">&tl;b&gt;</bpt>. The parts in blue are the marker part, the part in grey is the content part.

• Remove code marker, but keep code content:
  This removes the code marker but preserve its content. In other words, the content of the code becomes part of the text.
• Remove code content, but keep code marker:
  This remove the code content but preserve its marker. In other words, the inline code still exists but it has been generalized and the data of the original format cannot be retrieved from it anymore.
• Remove code marker and code content:
  This removes the whole inline code, there is no trace of it left.

Strip codes in the source text -- Set this option to apply the removal action selected to the source text.

Strip codes in the target text -- Set this option to apply the removal action selected to the target text.

Apply to non-transltable text unit -- Set this option to apply the removal action even to text unit marked as non-translatable. If this option is not set, all non-translatable text units are left untouched.
