Hi everyone

Is there a way to display name of strings within OmegaT interface while working on XML file?
I got a big project here in XML (around 5k strings), and sometimes the meaning of a text is not really clear without having a look on what's the name of the string.

Example:



...
Fire Blade
Fire
...


Things like CrowdIn already have this feature, and I'm sure there must be a way for OmegaT as well.<... See more

What you wanted us to see (but couldn't, due to an unfixed bug in ProZ.com's forum service):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources xmlns:xliff="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2">
...
<string name="name_of_a_sword">Fire Blade</string>
<string name="button">Fire</string>

The OmegaT XLIFF filter displays a list of fixed type of strings Apr 13, 2015

OmegaT has no generic XML filter. Your sample looks like an XLIFF file:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/xliff/v1.2/os/xliff-core.html
except the "xliff" tag is missing. What is the format of your document?

Example:

That doesn't look like a standard XLIFF way of providing comments.

Any ideas?

Comments are displayed in the Comments pane. But the OmegaT XLIFF filter can only display "standard" comments: group and trans-unit resname attribute and trans-unit note.

Yes, it's a XLIFF file with not-so-good structure (well, thanks to Chinese developers, they don't really like to follow the docs). And I've show you shortened version of it - I keep the whole header and footer of document as is, but just left only two strings.

And the question is: is there a way to display tag content (string name="app_name" part) somewhere in OmegaT interface, just for reference?

In the Editor, when you hover a shortened tag, the full content of the tag is displayed.
