Release Notes

New Features

Copy Source to Target

Often, our customers need to tailor their app content for different markets that share the same language. In these cases, translation project managers need to first prepare intermediate versions of the source content for regional review before translating it into other languages.

With the new “Copy Source to Target” action, users can copy source values into one or more target strings from the editor.

API Route to Set Screen Custom Sort Order

Linguists that translate or review strings in GL Strings often rely on screenshots for context. This feature is widely used among our customers as we offer multiple integrations that allow them to upload screenshots from their apps into our dashboard.

On our dashboard, screenshots can be sorted by name, date or manually re-arranged from the Screens list.

Now developers can use our new API endpoint to define the exact order in which screens appear on the dashboard. This enables teams to align screen order with the natural flow of the app user experience, providing better context during screenshot reviews. This new feature is ideal for large, automated or frequently updated projects.

You can find our more information about this new endpoint in our API documentation.

Manual Import: Default Option to Skip Strings Without a Key

Going forward, when a user imports an XLS, CSV, or TSV file manually into our dashboard, key values without a name will be skipped by default. Previously, these values were automatically assigned system-generated keys and included in the import scope. This resulted in comments and other type content being imported as a key into the dashboard. Users who would like to keep the old behavior can enable the “Auto-generate missing keys” option during import.

Improvements

Custom Filter: Support More Tags

The maximum number of tags that can be selected in a custom filter has been increased from 3 to 6, enabling more complex filters.

Bug Fixes

MT Usage Counters Display Incorrectly Across Branches

Counters now update properly when switching between branches from the project dashboard.

MT Not Applied on Outdated Strings in Branching Projects

Machine Translation now correctly populates outdated translations in branching projects.

Dual Screen Navigation Issues

We improved the dual-screen mode by reducing flicker, UI reloading, and language inconsistencies when navigating between screens.
