Start evaluation (automatic word count)
If you select this option, the system will display randomly selected segments сontaining only corrected units for evaluation:
Then you may configure the evaluation process:
- Skip repetitions—the system will hide repeated segments (only one of them will be displayed in this case).
- Skip locked units—the program will hide "frozen" units. For example, the client wants some parts, extremely important for him, stayed unchanged. Besides, extra units slow the editor’s work down.
- Evaluation sample word count limit—the number of words in edited segments chosen for evaluation.
Having configured it, press "Start evaluation" to initiate the process.
You may configure the evaluation process:
- Skip locked units - hide "frozen" units (for example, the client wants some parts, extremely important for him, stayed unchanged. Besides, extra units slow down editor’s work).
- Skip segments with match >= - fuzzy match percentage. The program will hide segments with a match greater than or equal to that you specified.
- Evaluation sample word count limit - the number of words in edited segments, chosen for evaluation.
Press "Start evaluation".
And you may choose the number of words in edited segments for evaluation when starting the process.

Comparison details
- Total units - the total number of segments.
- Corrected units - the number of segments with amendments.
