Advanced Translation Editor total

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client reported an issue with the WPML Advanced Translation Editor where the progress indicator always shows 100%, even when there are draft segments.
Solution:
We explained that the appearance of a dash-line status indicates that the sentence is translated automatically. If the sentence is in Draft status, it will display an orange color line instead of a blue color line. Editing the sentence and clicking on Save changes the status to a straight-line, indicating manual translation. In both scenarios, the sentence is considered translated, and the total showing 100% is accurate.

This will help speed up the support process. Could you please provide a specific example of the issue you're encountering? For instance, do you complete a task 100%, but it doesn’t update on the frontend? Thank you! Best regards, Marcel

markL-39	Hello. You should see in the enclosed video that the translation job completes, but the percentage complete indicator stays on 100% whether there are draft segments or not. You should see a video enclosed here hidden link

Those sentences are translated automatically and it has the dash-line status. If the translation sentence is in Draft status, it will have the orange color line instead of the blue color line. Please check the attached screenshot. I hope that makes sense.

Long Nguyen WPML Supporter since 02/2022 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (GMT+07:00)	Hi, As I already mentioned https://wpml.org/forums/topic/advanced-translation-editor-total/#post-16014261 if you see the dash-line status, which means the sentence is translated automatically, it is actually translated. if you edit the sentence and click on Save, the status will be changed to straight-line, which means the sentence is translated manually. In both cases, the sentence is translated and the total shows 100% is correct. Thanks.

markL-39	OK thanks understood. However its a change from the previous design, a bit disconcerting. Previously you had 2 ratios I think, blank and confirmed, but it din't work so well. Updating my mindset.
