    • 1 Comment
    Dear Trados, I find the termbases viewer's text on each of the terms to be too small. It is strange that we cannot change the font sizes and it is really difficult to navigate my termbases. Furthermore I think the UI of Multi-term can be improved with...

    We have groupshare and online Multiterm. RWS tells us they do not retain logs on deletions from the termbase. This means if someone inadvertently or deliberately makes incorrect changes to database, there is no means of tracing back. Since the service...

    The Community Advanced Display Filter in SDL Studio has a really nice feature called "Reverse Filter" which allows users to filter for segments that do not match the set filter. I would really like to see this functionality in one of the upcoming releases...

    • 0 Comments
    Unless you know how to do an XSL transformation with your XML import file, unknown fields cannot be correctly mapped onto an existing MultiTerm termbase definition when importing them (e.g. import from another non-SDL termbase). Either no terms or inconsistent...

    We have groupshare and online Multiterm. RWS removed existing functionality that allowed users with permissions to export the termbase to excel. This was used by our group for termbase reviews and by vendors as offline backups. We do not have...
