This idea has now been fully delivered with Trados Studio 2022 SR1. You now have the choice between a progress bar based on words and/or segments. See release notes for more information.
Please go back to Progress Bar focusing on words not segments
I agree with Theodore and all the other posters- this change is really annoying and my confirmation statistics do not show words yet to be translated. But then I suppose I'm a "new" user since I've only had Trados since 2014. Clearly a large number of people find this change inappropriate considering that many like me, initially thought it was a problem in the software. I think RWS should carefully consider their target customers.

We are running some one on one online sessions with our development team to get some direct feedback on the newManagerview in Trados Studio 2022 and this topic sits quite nicely in there as it also has a progress bar behaving in the same way as the current view. So if you're interested in making sure your opinion is considered you can apply for the opportunity here: Trados Studio Manager View - Feedback Opportunity
So far only three people have shown any interest in this opportunity which doesn't exactly strengthen any case to provide functionality not already in there.
