  • Automatic switching from Termbase Search window back to Term Recognition window

    Dear SDL developers, Sometimes, when working in Studio and a term that I would expect to be displayed in the Term Recognition doesn't appear, I change to the Termbase Search window to search for it manually. Quite often, it then happens that I forget...
  • Smarter plural handling of TM matches

    Currently the Studio TM isn't too smart when it comes to plurals. Let's say I have a file with strings like these and their corresponding translations: 1 month : 1 mhìos 2 months : 2 mhìos 3 months : 3 mìosan 4 months : 4 mìosan 11 months :...
  • Filter development and cloud based filter distribution

    A filter development group with cloud based automated distribution would be a great tool for clients and internal users alike. Can we initiate a service for Clients that pay for gold level service and above where they could submit files for filter development...
  • Add date when a file was added in Files View

    I suppose it would be a useful idea. I suppose that many of us add new files to existing projects at later stages, but it's difficult to filter them out once they have been added. Now you can sort them by size or status, but not by date.
  • adding the active template name to the File | Options dialog

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    I guess this would be a very limited and small change that would be of great help to people working with many templates. Many times we need to check what is the active one, so instead of checking info under Setup in order to see what template is in...

    It would be very helpful if a direct link is provided from a QA verification error to the corresponding regular expression definition. This would allow me to revise the definition quickly if necessary.
  • Recognize words beginning with a capital letter as placeables

    • Idea Delivered Partially on

    This could be an extra option in Translation memory settings > Language resources > Recognize group and should apply to any word excluding the first word of the segment (or that could be a suboption). It is already implemented from time immemorial in...
  • Final Source file with the track changes from existing TM sentences

    • Under Community Review on

    I often need a generated source document (just like final word file of a target) with the changes I usually can see while working in editor mode in a TM window. It'll be great to have such feature. Kind regards, Teona
  • Ctrl+Comma should not include single-digit numbers

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    If there is a single digit number in the source text, this is included in the drop down box when Ctrl+Comma is pressed to add tags to the target. My suggestion is to only include numbers of two digits or more in this list. Individual numbers are obviously...
  • Subtitling data: Remove hours and minutes in duration column

    • Under Community Review on
    • 1 Comment
    When subtitling, the duration column shows the duration a subtitle is displayed in the format H:MM:SS:Milliseconds. I have yet to see a subtitle that is visible for a whole minute, let alone an hour. It would be much easier to see the relevant information...
