Ability to pin the Search and Replace Dialog

Hi,


1.

I would really appreciate if I was able to pin the Search and Replace Dialog in Studio, or at least keep it over any other window. Ideally, floatting and pinable at the same time.

I often use that dialog, and it happens I forget to close it; and I have then to find it under other Studio and Non-Studio Windows, and it's often a mess. It would be a major ergonomic improvement and a time saving if I (we) add the option to have it always visible.

By the way, it would be great to have a default button on that dialog, as is the case in most software in the Windows environment. E.g., automatically "clicking" the Search Next command when hitting the Enter Key afer having entered a word to be searched, or closing the dialog when hitting the Escape key.

 

Thanks in advanceScreenshot of Trados Studio's Search and Replace Dialog with a red arrow pointing to the top right corner indicating the need for a pin feature, and another arrow pointing to the 'Search Next' button suggesting a default button feature.

  • I endorse Philippe's commonsense suggestion - thank you, Sir.  In general, if to proceed a program requires response to a dialog box, it is good programming practice to keep that box up front. I hope future releases, versions and patches will include this as an option, for flexibility.
