Move phrases

To move phrases:
  • Drag and drop the phrases or phrase folders (by their text label not their icons) into the desired target phrase folder.
  • Alternatively, select the desired elements and click the Move button in the main menu and select the desired target phrase folder/file in the dialog window.
  • Or use the clipboard to cut selected elements to paste them into a selected target phrase folder.

Drag & drop items in the tree by their labels not by their icons.

Phrases can also be moved across files, including access rights settings.

Phrases that are moved from a password-protected phrase file to a file without password protection lose the password protection.

If phrases are moved from a Windows version to the phrase file branch of a PhraseExpress Mac or iOS version, data may be trimmed according to the functionality of the edition of the target version.

Items cannot be moved in following situations:
  • You do not have edit permissions (or any subfolder of that folder).
  • Another user is editing the element (if using a SQL server).
  • The phrase file is write-protected.
