Translation editor

The exam editor is launched from the list of your translations by clicking on the edit button. In the following figure we review the main components.

Exam editor

The main components of the exam editor are shown here.

Original content

In the left column you can choose which language you want to translate from (labelled as "Select the Original version"). You have the following possibilities:

  • One of the official versions. (Differences between original versions are also available)
  • Any of your languages.
  • Any language from the other delegations.

Translating content

The right column provides a set of text boxes where you can enter the translated version of the block on the left.

Simple blocks as titles only provide a simple text input. Other blocks like text paragraphs can be customized with the options in the toolbars.

Auto-translate

Auto-translate using DeepL (Google translate if the language is not supported by DeepL) is also available, if enabled. When the auto-translate toggle is switched on (Note: the translation language needs to be selected before switching on the auto-translate toggle), the copy the whole block and the copy all blocks from the original version buttons convert into auto-translate the whole block and all blocks and turn blue.

Auto-translate with AI

You can also use an LLM for auto-translation, if enabled. For this, enter the translation editor for the question you'd like to translate and click the Export for AI button. A full prompt should now have been copied to your clipboard (if access is not granted you will be prompted to copy the prompt manually). Then you can switch to your favorite LLM interface and paste the prompt for translation. Let the AI do its work and once finished, copy the translated content into the exam editor by copying it to your clipboard (the AI is instructed to generate a field with a button for this purpose) and click the Import from AI button.

Editor toolbar

Text styling

The following basic stylings are available:

  • Bold
  • Italic
  • Underline

Equation editor

Will start a panel for editing equations.

Text direction

Useful for LTR words when editing a RTL language.

Paragraph text direction

Used to change direction of a whole paragraph.

Styles

LTR (left to right) or RTL (right to left) styles are available for selecting specific text in a mixed language box: Arabic and English text in the same box for example.

Auto-save

By default your progresses will be automatically saved. This feature can be turned off (or on) using the lower toolbar. Next to the auto-save option you find the timestamp of the last saved version. When the timestamp is older than 10 minutes even though you have made changes during this time, call for support.

At any time one can save the current version with the Save button.
