The workspace layout
The translation workspace is built around a sidebar on the left and the editor filling the rest of the screen, with side panels that open on the right when you need them. Together they let you keep your bearings while you focus on the text.
The sidebar
Section titled “The sidebar”The left-hand sidebar is both your navigation and your map of the current project. From it you can:
- jump between Projects, your Organization, and admin areas, and open the user menu (switching accounts if you have more than one);
- browse the project’s files, expanding a file to see its sections — each a clickable row with small translated and validated progress bars; and
- reach the project’s other areas — Rules, Comments, Voice, Share / Members, and Settings.
On a narrow screen the sidebar collapses to a slim rail of icons to give the editor more room.
The editor
Section titled “The editor”The editor is where translation happens. Depending on what you’re doing it shows either:
- the cell list — every cell in the current file, source beside target; or
- the single-cell editor — an expanded view of one cell with tabs for back-translation, audio, issues, and edit history.
Each cell row pairs the source with your target editor, with a status area and an action rail (AI, audio, comments) that appears on hover or focus.
Side panels
Section titled “Side panels”Some areas open as a panel beside the editor rather than taking you away from the text — Comments, Rules, and a cell’s history, for example. They slide in on the right so you can keep the cells you’re working on in view, and close again when you’re done.
A header and a status bar
Section titled “A header and a status bar”Above the editor, a header carries the current file and view controls; along the bottom, a status bar shows your sync state. Both stay put as you scroll.
