Navegar entre contextos

Spanish to English Art/Literary IT (Information Technology) Programming/coding
Hi there!

I need to translate "Navegar entre contextos" and I don't find a precise phrase that can reflect the idea.

Basically, the text is talking about different ways of coding some expression in programming and how to navigate through/across/between contexts in a programming platform.

Could you please help me? Context Navigation seems quite vague.

I'm sorry! I copied the wrong string.

"(...) a lo largo de esta capacitación aprendimos a utilizar el operador X, tanto para navegar entre contextos como para su caso especial de uso".

Thanks a lot to you both!

That doesn't actually say 'navegar entre contextos', but it confirms my belief that 'navigate between' would be fine.
Marianela Grazzini (asker) Dec 1, 2023:
Hi, Phil.
Thank you for your help!

Here's an example:

-Este operador se utiliza para navegar entre distintos atributos de tipo referencia, colecciones, compuestos y acumuladores.

Hi Marianela Your suggestion of 'navigate between contexts' seems reasonable. But speaking of contexts, please could you give us a few sentences of the Spanish.

switch between properties

Indeed, the actual context says something different.

If atributos is translated contexts, then 'navigate' or 'surf' might work.

-Este operador se utiliza para navegar entre distintos atributos de tipo referencia, colecciones, compuestos y acumuladores.

...This operator is utilis/zed (to avoid the ambiguity of 'used to surfing') to switch between various properties (different attributes), such as reference-type....

PS 'I don't find a precise phrase...' = I can't find an exact construction...
Example sentence:

In the top-left corner of the Analytics interface is a menu you can use to switch between all of the Analytics accounts and properties for which you have permission.

Peer comment(s):

agree ezpz : I'm trying to learn a bit of python programming. There is something call the dot "." operator which lets you access "attributes" and "methods" of a given object. I think the original uses "contextos" as a blanket term, so I think "properties" is correct.

Thanks, ezpz - 'probably' correct and, indeed, my fuzzy match.
agree neilmac : Or between "environments" if by contextos they mean "entornos"....

Thanks, Neil. It's not a glossary question, so I can't add 'environments' as an alternative term.
Something went wrong...
