We have a "translated segments vs total segment nb" but it would be nice to have similar settings for characters and words so that it is easier to manage one day of work.

    I've just come to make such a suggestion and saw this...
    Maybe it has been forgotten and I can bring it up again in this way ;-)
    I think this shouldn't be too difficult since we already have the match statistics feature to count words and characters, and this would give a clearer idea about the amount of work done vs yet to be done considering that the length of segments may vary a lot.

    Counting segments and words/characters is not the same.

    Segments are counted "in real time" after living each segment because it just requires doing +1 or -1.

    Counting words/characters requires using an algorithm.

      Maybe, but when entering a segment, we know the number of words in that segment and we just need to do a +nb/-nb. So it does not seem to be that different.

    I understand. It would be almost like doing the "Match Statistics" operation after each segment translated I guess ( some task depending on the size of the project)
    So the developers should know better if its pros outweigh its cons...
