    Having to switch very often between the Projects, File and Editor views using the view buttons of the bottom left navigation pane, I often happen to click the Reports view by mistake (which is located between the Files and Editor button), and depending...

    Many applications (even other CAT tools) continuously autosave in the background without any user intervention or disturbance (progress bar) or need to click Ctrl+S. Ctrl+S should be a relic of the past in a modern user-friendly application.

    It happens very often that I get a high match, 98% for example in which the text is very similar, even identical, but there are several tags. It obviously takes time to put those tags in, and as often as not it is simpler to copy source to target and...

    AutoSuggest (and similar) functions are currently unable to adapt their suggestions to the case required by the translator. For example, it will suggest "ASSIGnment" when the translator is half-way through attempting to type full-caps "ASSIGNMENT".

    It would be great to use project templates published on Groupshare in Studio. It will make easier to handle project creation among several PMs and make GS single source of project templates. Right now each PM has different set of project templates in...

  • Force "Default Layout" in Termbase Viewer

    Currently, when using a termbase, I see the Flags Layout being the default. This has a side effect that when adding a synonym, it is added, but not saved and a click is required instead of being able to use keyboard only. See below: https://community...

  • Fix fragment matching ending punctuation

    I'm sure Fragment Matching is a very complex beast and on the whole, it's not bad. But thing it fails miserably on - which I find baffling because it seems an easy thing to check for, even for a computer - is ending punctuation. I often get 99% fragment...

  • Shift F3 to include title case

    Clifford Marcus
    • Under Community Review
    • 1 Comment
    Toggling through shift F3 will go through various case options, all upper case, title case (not real title case because it just capitalizes all first letters) and all lower case. It would be nice if a sentence case was also included (i.e. first letter...

  • Restore source language search using keyboard in project creation

    Unlike Studio 2015, it's not possible to search a source language using keyboard by typing the first letter of a language. It's a real lost of time to search a language by scrolling the list. Thank you, Vincent
