Idea Delivered

Hi  these are both delivered by apps from what I can see:

- SDL TMConvert - http://appstore.sdl.com/language/app/sdltmconvert/228/ - for the export

- Record source file - http://appstore.sdl.com/language/app/record-source-tu/504/

Setting to delivered for now.

Enhancements to Studio TMs - export as a Delimited file (CVS or TXT) AND Source file

Hello,

It would be great to have the old export to TXT (or at least some Delimited file format) feature back in Studio. Many clients ask for "simple" exports and we wouldn't need additional tools like Olifant to be able to handle other format exports such as TMX.

It would also be great to see as part of the System Fields in SDLTMs a Source file field which capture at least the file where that segment was first created. Filepath and name would be ideal but filename is already better. It's a very useful piece of information which is available in the TMX file but not visible in the SDLTM format.

Kind regards,

Miriam

  • Hi again,

    My experience with SDL TM convert is not the best as it usually hangs it bigger TMs.  As for the source file, ,please note that this is key functionality that is missing in Studio (and the suggestion of a plug-in will not do much, as that is not something that can be deployed in TMS TMs).

  • I didn't know about the 2nd one (thank you for that) but why an extra conversion step? The Source file information would be most useful when I download TMs while investigating where something comes from. I can never do it with SDLTMs and that was the origin of my suggestion.
