Editing assets in a browser

The Segmented Asset Editor allows you to edit source assets and tasks directly, without a target file. The asset is segmented and is shown in the Segmented Asset Editor. Use the Segmented Asset Editor if an asset has a locale set up and its MIME type has a file type associated with it. You can alternatively choose to edit the asset in the browser, to switch to the Freeform Editor, or to download the asset and edit offline. You can also access the Viewer from the Segmented Asset Editor.

  1. Choose an asset to edit. Either:
    • From the WorldServer Explorer, navigate through the directory tree to the asset and select it.
    • From the Task list for a Project, select a task with an associated asset by clicking the checkbox next to the task.
  2. Open the Segment Asset Editor by clicking Edit > In Browser Workbench.
    WorldServer opens the asset in the Segmented Asset Editor, with the asset contents chunked into small segments.
