Flags
You can attach flags to specific text rows in the translation grid.
Flags attached to an item (row) in the translation grid are displayed next to the corresponding item group name in the Overview window.
If flags are attached to multiple items (rows) in the same item group in the translation grid, only one flag is displayed next to the item group name in the Overview window.
Flags are not language-specific. Flags can be attached only to entire rows in the translation grid, not to individual target language columns.
You cannot attach flags to shared text items, except in the shared text section at the end of the document where shared text can be entered and edited.
