Priorities are useful for limiting the scope of a search (Find/Replace dialogue) in our translation project. I would also like to use this function when searching in our Back Translation. However, no books appear in the Define Priorities dialogue for the BT project. If it’s not possible to set Priorities in the BT project, is there a way the BT project can inherit the priorities from the main project (at least in the Find/Replace dialogue)?

In order to define a priority you must first add those books to the “Books” tab of the project properties. Once you have selected books, you should be able to define priorities with those books.
