MemoQ change export path Change export path (dialog)

Invoking

You can invoke the Change export path dialog by choosing Change export path under the list view of the Translations pane of Project home. The dialog consists of the following sections:

· Selected documents pane: this area indicates the full original path and the export path (if any) of the documents selected in the Translations pane of Project home
· Edit export path rule area - this is the place where you can edit and display export path rules. You can write the path using backslashes with fixed strings and/or with tokens. You can also use the button to browse for the target folder structure.
· Rule: You can write the path using backslashes with fixed strings and/or with tokens. You can also use the button to browse for the target folder structure. You have to add also the file names and expressions to the path. The default rule memoQ uses for exporting documents that are imported from a folder and from all its subfolders is the following:

<BasePathAbs>_<TrgLangIso3>\<RelativePath>\<OrigFileNameExt>

This means that during the export, the documents are saved into the very same folder they came from and with names consisting of the three-letter target language code, the path within the base folder, and the original file name.

· Tokens (double-click to insert): Use this pane to insert a token from the list after the current cursor position in the Export path rule field.
· Description: This field indicates the description of the token selected in the Tokens pane.
· Export path problems pane: this area ndicates the full original path of the selected documents, and the related test results of the export path entered into the Export path rule field. If the export path rule entered is valid, the Problem column will show OK, otherwise the description of the problem will appear
