Align Assist Help
Quick Start Tutorial
This tutorial will let you get up and running with Align Assist. In this tutorial, we'll align two simple files, which can be found on the Felix website server.
1. Start Align Assist
From the Start menu, select All Programs >> Assistant Suite >> Tools >> Align Assist >> Align Assist.
The Align Assist main window appears.
2. Specify the source and translation files
Set the source file to:
http://felix-cat.com/media/manuals/align-assist/source.html
Set the translation file to:
http://felix-cat.com/media/manuals/align-assist/trans.html
The Align Assist main window should now look like this:
3. Align the source and translation
From the Align Assist main window, click Align. The files are loaded, and the Align Window appears:
4. Line up the source and translation
The source and translation segments aren't aligned: the source file has "delta" and "echo" as separate segments, but the translation file has "DELTA ECHO" as a single segment.
Split the "DELTA ECHO" segment into two segments, "DELTA" and "ECHO." Right click on that cell, and select Split from the context menu.
The Split window appears. Edit the text boxes so that one contains "DELTA," and the other "ECHO," then click OK.
Now the source and translation segments are aligned.
5. Save the Felix memory file.
Save the results as a Felix memory. From the File menu, select Save.
The Save dialog appears. Select a save location and filename, and click Save.
This completes the quickstart tutorial. See the Contents for more detailed information.
