For proofreading in LibreOffice Writer it is very handy when you can navigate from segment to segment, while CafeTran Espresso keeps track of your progress:

Integrated feature Mar 16, 2023

Of course it would be best for all users, on all supported operating systems, if CafeTran Espresso would offer this synchronization out of the box. I have entered a request for feature to support this.

The dream CAT tool would even allow to automatically reflect back into CTE any changes made while proofreading in the target preview. But that would be asking too much, maybe.

Damn! Should I use SDL Studio instead? Mar 17, 2023

A bit convoluted, though.

Hopefully, CafeTran will also get a fully integrated previewing system at some point Mar 17, 2023

Since the preview in memoQ immediately gets updated to reflect whatever you currently have in your target box, I use the preview pane in memoQ for proofreading. If I want to make a change I just click on it in the preview, which automatically selects the relevant segment in the grid in memoQ where I can make the change.

Hopefully, at some point, Igor will come up with something similar to the previewing systems in memoQ, Trados, Wordfast.

It's just that the days in Kołobrzeg have 24 hours, just like in Hastings. (And there is this guy at the Freshdesk who keeps sending suggestions, ideas, request etc.)
