how do you copy the selected translation result into the target segment ?
In this case, the translation result will replace the current contents of the target segment

Overwriting segments Feb 13

I assume you are asking how to insert a translation result without overwriting the segment. If you look in Options → Miscellaneous → Lookup results, there is an option labelled "Inserting a TM or corpus match overwrites target segment", which is selected by default. If you uncheck this, you can insert a translation result without deleting the current text in the segment. Hope that helps!

CTRL+Space Feb 13

Make sure the cursor is in the target segment and the desired translation result is selected, then press CTRL+Space. The present content of the target segment will be replaced.
