The choice idea is not very frequent now...
PS I haven't noticed any difference in the behavior of "Ctrl and/or Shift combinations with arrows," but maybe I'm not using DVX in a sophisticated enough way. What kind of issues are you having, Grzegorz?
When you have multiple portion hits in the target sentence after AutoAssembly (marked with blue or grey blue) and you use Ctrl/Shift+arrow left/right (mainly left arrow), DVX loses the selection (if Shift is pressed) and starts to move in the opposite direction.
Awful.
The letters with diacritics may be considered as code boundary and a part of the sentence can't be edited.
You must go to another segment and return back to the misinterpreted one.
When you use heavily portions and AA, it may slow you down up to 15-20%.

I think it's related with some propagation problems. We are working on it, but we also want to finish a beta build of the new version as soon as possible in order to have the release in Q2.

But this happens in all the applications. The worst thing is that these applications do not use Ctrl+Shift+anyotherkey to run any function.

Whatever you do, try to reproduce it in MS Word.

No, Xavi.
Ctrl+Shift+left/right arrow(s) is a damn standard Windows convention.
I.e. select the entire word(s) on the left/right.
Then I may use the DVX Ctrl+Shift+B/N in order to move it back/forward.
It was one of my core DVX functions.
It worked perfectly as long as I remember... 'til 7.5.316.
The codes handling was always somehow illogic but the words with multiple portions hits were always handled correctly.
You have a bug.
Cheers

Atril should use this 'feature' in its campaigns. DVX slows you down, so upgrade to the new version, but slowly
In my case, use of the Ctrl+Shift+down/up arrow combination (without AA) sometimes causes termination of DVX without an error message. Luckily, DVX saves everything.

Well, as the French is not the language of the forum, just for fun, I submitted this text to GT and I received a surprisingly decent translation.

I have an impression the 7.5.316 build is less stable than the 7.5.303.
Sad but true.

Yep.
Unlike T2009.

PS.
By mistake, I put some mess in my last posts (I clicked Edit instead of Quote) but I hope it's (almost) repaired...

Thanks Gregorz, I will check if the same happens with 7.5.303 with Ctrl+Shift+B/N
The GT comment reminds me one of the new features of the new version. Uppps, I said before that I cannot say nothing else

Ctrl+Shift+B/N works well.
Maybe the algorithm should be improved in order to handle better codes, apostrophes etc. but it's still OK.
The problem is the selection done with Ctrl+Shift+left/right arrow before I use Ctrl+Shift+B/N, it's completely erratic.
It seems you introduced a feature which "unpaints" multiple portion matches when Ctrl+arrows is used (well, sometimes it's useful if your sentence is like a Xmas tree because of the coloured multiple hits) but you have a problem with the cursor position.
I suppose you assume left-to-right cursor move but when the cursor moves right-to-left, some "parasite" cursor moves are added in order to complete the procedure.
I'll try to prepare a little example for you in few minutes.

Nobody noticed it

I had understood I would be able to use the software in various computers, although not simultaneously. Am I right? If this is so, how do I go about using it in my travelling computer. Got a huge project I gotta finish within the next 48 hours and it will be impossible without the assistance of DV. Can you help me with instructions as of what do I need to do to be able to use a full version of DV in different computers?
Thanks again, Javier. Cheers! ▲ Collapse

Hi Will,
You should reinstall the dongle drivers on your laptop. In order to do it, please follow these steps:
1) Unplug the USB dongle.
2) Go to Start Menu->Run and type:
"C:\Program Files\ATRIL\Deja Vu X\Dongle\setupdrv.exe" /u
(make sure the /u is outside the quotes)
3) Go to Start Menu->Run and type:
"C:\Program Files\ATRIL\Deja Vu X\Dongle\setupdrv.exe"

4) Shut down.
5) Reconnect the dongle and restart.
6) The Windows "Found New Hardware" wizard should appear. Follow it, making sure to tell it to use the default location when searching for the drivers, and ignoring (i.e. accepting) any warnings about the drivers not being signed.
7) Try DVX. ▲ Collapse

As Javier said. it's probably a dongle setup problem.
You have a 32 or 64 bit OS?
On some 64-bit systems the setup may sometimes fail and the dongle should be installed manually.
I had understood I would be able to use the software in various computers, although not simultaneously. Am I right?
It's one of the uncontenstable DVX advantages... unless the dongle get stolen or eaten by a dog
Cheers
