Dialog Editor

This section presents the rendered content of keys.


The editor organizes the selected key vertically and recursively, displaying its content in all languages, its contexts, and its child keys.


It offers navigation and rendering options to filter languages and contexts, as well as action and telemetry tools.



Rendering System

LSDE

features a "post-processing" rendering system to customize text display, facilitating reading and writing.


Configure Regex patterns to capture text groups and assign decorations to them.


These captures can be associated with variables to provide additional information to the translator, editor, or LLM.

Show/Hide Contexts


Shows or hides contexts related to a key to simplify the view.


Each icon corresponds to the label of the configured contexts.

Show/Hide Languages

These filters are also used by

LSDE

for other system operations, thus impacting other diagnostic tools.


Editing Zones

Select the Key in the Tree


Locates and selects the key in the tree.


Useful for editing metadata, only possible on the active key.

Tasks


A menu offers tasks applicable to this key, its relationships, and its child keys.

Protect

Disabling this option suggests disabling all validations of other languages linked to this key.

Search/Replace

Search/Replace


[CTRL+F] opens the internal search tool.


It offers a Regex mode for complex cases.


A search can also be launched via the context menu.


Performance

By default,

LSDE

disables complex renderings (widgets) in inactive windows.


This ensures a good compromise between visual experience and low latency.


If performance is not an issue, disable this optimization in the global configurations.


Can consume resources if multiple languages are displayed simultaneously, as the rendering system is segmented by key.
