Viewing Frequent Segments

You can view a list of segments that occur frequently in your project. You can see the segment text, the number of occurrences of each segment, and the number of words and characters in each segment.

How to View Frequent Segments

1. Open a project.

2. Do one of the following, depending on the part of the user interface you are using:

   • Ribbon Select Analysis > Suggestions > Frequent Segments.

   • Summary Window Pane If you have the Analysis window pane open, double-click the row that mentions frequent segments.

   The Frequent Segments window pane opens, displaying segments that occur a certain number of times throughout your project.

3. To see more of the information in the window pane, drag the divider bar to make the pane wider.

   • Segment Displays the segment that occurs multiple times throughout your project.

   • Count Displays the number of times a particular segment occurs throughout your project.
   • Word Count Displays the number of words contained in a particular segment.
   • Character Count Displays the number of characters contained in a particular segment.
4. If a certain number of items have been found, page navigation buttons in the local toolbar may be enabled. You can use these buttons to go to additional pages to display more items. You can also click View All in the local toolbar to see all results on a single page. Keep in mind that the more items you have in the project, the longer it will take to load this view.

What’s Next?

After viewing frequent segments, you may want to customize the segments shown in the window pane. In other words, you can change the settings that determine when a segment is considered "frequent." Changing these settings is likely to increase or decrease the number of segments shown in the window pane. See Customizing Frequent Segments Shown.

You can also convert any of the frequent segments to a snippet or variable. See Converting Frequent Segments to Snippets and Converting Frequent Segments to Variables.
