6.3.1 Getting Started
Use review mode to review and correct your translations. In review mode, you look up cells just like in translation mode, except in this case you’re looking up translations instead of source segments.
If you make a correction to the translation in a cell (or textbox), add the translation to Felix by pressing Alt + ↑. This will correct the original translation unit (TU) in your translation memory.
To enter review mode, click on the half-green, half-white button on the right-hand side of the toolbar. To switch back to translation mode, click this button again.
When you’re in translation mode, an asterisk (*) appears next to the menu, and the colors of the toolbar buttons are inverted.

6.3.2 Look up a Translation
Select the cell you wish to look up. Then from the Felix
menu, select Lookup, or press Alt + L. The
translation in your TM matching the cell’s contents will appear in Felix.
Note that unlike Word, formatting information is not preserved for Excel queries.
If a text box is selected, then the contents of the text box will be looked up.

6.3.3 Navigate through the Matches
Sometimes when you look up a translation in your memory, Felix will have more than one suggestion (if you enable the Translation History feature (see 6.5 Translation History), however, it will show the exact translation you used for the cell or textbox in question).
The number of suggestions, and the number of the current suggestion, will be shown at the bottom right of the suggestion:
In this example, the first of three suggestions (1/2) is being shown.
To view the next suggestion, click on Next in the Memory window, or from Excel, select Felix >> Next Translation (or press Alt + N).
Tip: The score for the next translation (in this example 68%) is shown next to the Next link.
To view the previous suggestion, click on Prev in the Memory window, or from Excel, select Felix >> Prev Translation (or press Alt + P).
Tip: The score for the previous translation (in this example 68%) is shown next to the Prev link.
Matches will cycle: If you press Next while on the last suggestion, the first suggestion will be shown; likewise, pressing Prev while on the first suggestion will show the last suggestion.
6.3.4 Correct a Translation
- If the translation needs to be changed, make any corrections, then navigate to another cell (e.g. by pressing the Enter key), and navigate back to the cell you wish to correct (this is because what you type isn't finalized until the cell loses focus).
- From the Felix menu,
select Set (or press
Alt + ↑).Alternatively, you can select Set and Next (or press
Alt + S); this will register the current cell, and look up the next one (scanning left-to-right, top-to-bottom until a cell with text is found or a maximum number of cells has been searched).

- Select the cell into which you wish to retrieve the current suggestion from Felix.
- From the Felix menu, select
Get (or press
Alt + ↓).Alternatively, you can select Get and Next (or press
Alt + G); this will restore the current translation, and look up the next one (scanning left-to-right, top-to-bottom until a cell with text is found or a maximum number of cells has been searched).
