    • 0 Comments
    Dear SDL Studio Developers, I hope you can allow such a feature in SDL Studio, instead of having to run the Spell-checker on the whole file, as it currently stands. That would indeed save a lot of time in so many scenarios. Stay safe. Sameh...

    Hi, it would be nice if devs would finally offer a spellcheck and grammar API for Trados Studio so that users could get plug-ins from professional spellcheck and grammar developpers that allow on the fly error highlighting for such crucial checkings...
  • Group multiple tag pairs when inserting with a shortcut

    • Under Community Review on

    For example, currently, if there are many tag pairs before and after a phrase only 1 of them is inserted with a shortcut (Ctrl+, or Ctrl+Alt+Down arrow) and one has to repeat the procedure for the 2nd pair.
  • Kudos in Studio's standard TQA

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    In the standard TQA functionality of Trados Studio, it is currently not possible to give Kudos. Scoring settings only allow positive values (0-999), meaning you can only deduct points, not award. I suppose a simple solution would be to allow negative...
  • Cross-file fuzzy match leverage

    • 2 Comments
    A much needed option. If there are several files in the project, they can be quite similar and can not only have cross-file repetitions, but also have cross-file fuzzy matches, i.e. a translated segment from one file may be a 99% match for a segment in...

    • Under Community Review on
    • 1 Comment
    When one writes a comment, it is easy to just hit OK. If one decides that a different severity level is to be applied, rather than the default one, there are way too many steps to follow to change the severity level.

    • 4 Comments
    I would like to define product codes (these always follow the principle LLLNNNN, so 3 capital letters following 4 numbers for example PIL4040) as non-translatable text. I think this could be done by creating a Regex to when converting to xliff Trados...

    • 0 Comments
    When I save an alignment result as sdlxliff and then open this file in the Studio editor, I see in the fields “Origin” and “Provider” that the TU comes from alignment. Can you please enable adding this information also when importing the *.sdlalign file...

    • 4 Comments
    Good morning/afternoon, what about the opportunity to insert extra files when creating a Return Package (e.g. final translated files in their original format in the [target language] folder or any other extra file)? This will avoid to load/add them...
