Translation check inheritance

[jaigudess]

Describe the issue

I have requirement, where once the translation is approved user can change the translation but its max-length or max-size should not be greater than then previously approved translation length. So i manually set the mx-size and max-length, but it is getting inherited to other languages with same keys.

How to fix this

I already tried

• [X] I've read and searched the documentation.
• [X] I've searched for similar filed issues in this repository.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Add more than one language to translate, say German and Spanish
2. Add one key in parent language (English)
3. When you do the translation in German set the max length
4. Same will be shown on Spanish key
5. I want to set this as different values for example German Max-length : 10 and for Spanish Max-length : 12

Expected behavior

flags values getting inherited, which i guess is default but I want to set it manually for each translation

[nijel]

The flags are currently set per source string in Weblate. They could be set for individual translations when parsed from the translation files, see https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/formats.html#translation-flags

This issue has been put aside. It is currently unclear if it will ever be implemented as it seems to cover too narrow of a use case or doesn't seem to fit into Weblate.

Please try to clarify the use case or consider proposing something more generic to make it useful to more users.
