Hi everybody,
Reverting to my unanswered previous query.
In sdlxliff files I sometimes have TAGS (not segments) that are locked but must be edited (translated).
So I have to unlock them first before translating their contents.
My usual route is using Trados Studio for this only purpose, unlocking and editing the concerned tag(s), saving my sdlxliff file, exporting it, and reopening it in MemoQ so I can continue working on it.

I have two questions about this issue:
1/ In MemoQ, how can i spot such locked tags?
The segment when viewed in Trados Studio:
The same segment when viewed in MemoQ:
Is there any MemoQ setting that would allow me to see that Video tag (arrowed) is to be edited?
2/ Can I directly unlock locked tags from within MemoQ?
