How can I reset text segments in my version documents?

Created on 24th August 2015 at 12:39 by Jamie O'Connell

You may be required to reset a text segment (or multiple text segments) to that of the master document, e.g., the styling, the text itself, etc.

Such a 'reset' of text segments must be done within the master document, and will reset the chosen segment(s) in the chosen version documents to the master-document settings.

NOTE:
Any segments that are reset will have the translation for that segment undone.

NOTE:
You will need to lock the version documents as normal.

NOTE:
The same procedure can be followed for resetting images.

Select Text Segment(s)

After locking the version documents as normal, select the text segments that you wish to reset.

If items on more than one spread need to be selected simultaneously, please use the structure panel.

Click 'Tools > Reset Versions'

Click on 'Tools > Reset Versions'.

'Reset segments and images in version documents' window

The 'Reset segments and images in version documents' window opens.

By default, no version documents are selected and no 'status' checkmark is set.

Apply changes to selected version documents

Select the version documents in which you want to reset the selected text segments.
If the text segments are within a content group, you can choose to reset their status to 'Needs Edit/Translation', etc.
Click 'Apply'.

NOTE:
If you do not have any content selected to reset, or if you have not selected any version documents in which the content will be reset, then the 'Apply' button will be grayed out.

Click 'File > Save & Close'

Click 'File > Save & Close' to reset the selected content in the selected version documents.

NOTE:
A workflow must be present and running on a version document for items in that version document to be reset. If a workflow is currently paused, or if no workflow exists on a version document, the content will not be reset nor have the status applied to it.
