Is it possible to change the Translation project that a Back Translation is based on without changing the Back Translation status checkboxes?

Thanks,

Generally, it is not possible. The status checkboxes are based on comparing the current text to the text as it was when it was marked as complete. If you change projects, then the text will no longer match and everything will become out-of-date.

Of course, if the new project happens to have the same text, the same versification, and the same verse sequences, then it will keep them marked the same.

You could quickly check the check boxes using the tools at the top of the page to check the entire book.
