Document Selector

When working with jobs or projects that contain multiple documents, the Editor displays a document selector in the top bar. It lets you choose which documents to load in the grid: a single document, or all of them at once. This helps you focus on the content you need while keeping the full scope accessible.

  • Selecting documents: use the dropdown to pick one document, or open them all at once.

  • Viewing multiple documents: when more than one document is loaded, header rows in the grid mark where each document begins.


Selecting Documents

The document selector appears in the top bar, to the right of the scope label. It displays the name of the currently active document or the number of documents loaded.

Click the document name to open the dropdown. The dropdown contains:

  • A search field at the top to filter documents by name.

  • A scrollable list of all documents in the current scope.

  • A footer showing the total number of documents and an Open all button.

The document selector dropdown open, showing the search field, two documents (demo.docx selected and highlighted in green, Document.html unselected), the document count, and the "Open all" button.

Opening a single document

To open a single document:

  1. Click the document name in the top bar to open the dropdown.

  2. Browse the list, or type in the search field to filter by name.

  3. Click a document to load it in the grid.

The grid updates immediately to show only segments from that document.

Opening all documents

To open all documents at once:

  1. Open the dropdown.

  2. Click Open all at the bottom of the list.

The grid loads segments from every document in the scope.

If the scope contains only one document, the document selector is not displayed. The Editor loads the single document automatically.


Viewing Multiple Documents

When more than one document is loaded, the grid displays document header rows to separate them visually. Each header shows the document name in a distinct style, making it easy to see where one document ends and the next begins.

The grid showing segments from demo.docx (rows 189–191), followed by a document header row for Document.html, then the first segments of Document.html.

The top bar updates to reflect how many documents are open (for example, "3 docs open"). The scope label also includes a clickable link to the job or project: click it to navigate directly to the corresponding page in the TMS.

The top bar showing "Job: Editor: Public Demos/1 / demo.docx" with the job name as a clickable link, followed by the reload button and settings icons.
