Improve fuzzy matching for single word segments

Currently this is far from optimal, resulting in irrelevant matches as seen below. Even a no match situation would have been much better.

Screenshot showing Trados Studio Ideas with two segments. Segment 1 labeled 'INITIAL STS' with a 66% match to 'ARCHIKO'. Segment 2 labeled 'FAIL STS' also with a 66% match to 'APORRICH'.

  • Hi , we made changes recently that should actually have enhanced all cases involving what we call "acronyms" which you have here - i.e. one acronym segments. I agree this is not optimal, I am wondering if we should retrieve a fuzzy match at all in such cases. I will try to find out more details and will hopefully be able to get back to you in this posting here. BTW - are you using file-based or server/GroupShare-based TMs? Thanks, Daniel
