Segment 3, shown in the following screenshot, contains three words that require formatting (in bold, italics, and underline respectively). We type the translation of the entire segment first and then apply the formatting. This is often the easiest way to work with formatting.

To add the bold formatting to the French word for other, we select its translation (d'autres) in the target segment and press Ctrl + ,. This displays a QuickPlace list containing all three instances of formatting in the segment. The currently selected formatting is highlighted in yellow in the source segment. As you move up and down the QuickPlace list, the yellow highlighting also moves to show you which piece of source segment formatting is going to be applied.

To apply the desired formatting to the highlighted text in the target segment, select it in the QuickPlace list and press the Enter key. In our example, bold is now applied to the word d'autres. When you highlight the next piece of text for formatting in the target segment and press Ctrl + ,, the corresponding formatting automatically moves to the top of the QuickPlace list and gets highlighted in the source segment, as shown in the following screenshot:
