Depends what she meant with "segments". The way temperature selection works in the A346 is as follows (from the "user" perspective pretty much the same as for the
Triple3 and A343):
Cockpit crew will use the selectors on the air conditioning panel (overhead) to select a reference temperature. This can be done separately for the cockpit and the cabin. The flight attendants then fine-adjust the cabin temperature from the forward attendant panel. This can be done for three Airbus "standard" segments: rows 1-5, 10-16 and 20-45 IIRC. This corresponds to the whole first class + first two C rows, third C row to end of C and the whole Y section (all on a 34D).
