In MemoQ's top ribbon there is only the green 'Accept' option, and a dropdown menu where you can choose the 'Reject and Move To Next' option:

accept

Using that dropdown menu to reject changes (and then moving on to the next) is just too time consuming. I'd like to be able to reject changes by serially clicking on that button that says 'Accept' (which should be 'Reject' obviously) and go through the rest of the text, occasionally accepting some changes here and there. So is there a way of turning that 'Accept' button into a 'Reject' button, if that makes any sense?

Custom menus Jul 18

Hullo,

Not quite what you want, but if you right-click on the menu, you can choose "Customize The Ribbon" and then add the specific button you want to the Quick Access menu, for example. Alternatively you can add the option to the Quick Access Toolbar, which adds the button to the bar at the very top of your memoQ window. Either way you'll be able to click the command you want. Hope that helps!

Reject Jul 18

The only command I found that says "Reject" is under Review/Quality Assurance. I don't think that particular command will do what we want.

Does anyone know exactly how to add (to the ribbon) Reject Change or Reject Change and go to Next? That indeed would be handy! I also have wondered why they didn't just add a Reject button instead of making us click the arrow beside Accept.

Button location Jul 19

That button should be hiding under Review → Tracking → Accept → Reject This Change (or Reject And Move To Next), basically the same place it is currently hiding in the ribbon

SHOULD Jul 23

Yes, Felix, that is exactly where it should show when you try to customize the ribbon. But it doesn´t, just as I said earlier. At least, not in version 9.1.9 of Translator Pro.

Missing option Jul 24

Hmm... I just installed 9.1.9 to check and it's listed there in the menu for me, so not sure why it's not appearing for you, Molly.

If you're technically minded and aren't afraid of Breaking Things™, another option would be to try manually editing the %AppData%\memoQ\UserRibbonLayout.xml file and adding one of r_TrackChangesReject or r_TrackChangesRejectAndMove to the Items node of your choice.

Thanks Jul 24

Thanks, Erwin and Felix. I'll try the shortcut since it seems simpler.
