Can you help me plese, how I can connect 2 (or more) source segments with 3 (or more) target segments in Studio 2019 Aligment function?
From another view: can I merge source segments and target segments separately, then connect them with 1:1 Connection?
Hello Attila Kalmár
You can connect 1:1, 1:2 ... 1:5 and 2:2, but not 2:3 or anything like that.
You can split segments, but you can't merge them, so you might end up splitting and creating TUs from smaller chunks.
If your segments are really different source/target so that lots of 1:many or splitting segments is necessary, it might be worth taking a look at the segmentation rules that are set for both languages. The Aligner takes these rules from the TM that you define at the beginning.
Is that a help?

Thank you, Daniel. You helped me by confirming that e.g. 2:3 connection is not possible. Then I will indeed have to split and recreate segments manually. I will also verify the segmentation rules, it should improve the alignment basically.
