    SDL Trados Studio is lacking an important feature which is recognizing Think Cell elements on MS Power Point. Once you save the target, you discover that those elements are left without translation and you have to do translate them manually. It will be...

    When this option is activated, the respective segment is not only assigned the symbol for "Translated", but is also automatically written into the TM that is set as "Update". This behaviour is not obvious, but the option should rather be called "Confirm...
  • Option for adding a flag to sdlxliff file not to add a space after segment when reverting to source file format

    Hi, sometimes it would be nice if we could tell Trados not to add a space after certain segments when reverting to source file format. Quite often you get poorly prepared/segmented files from a client and in some target languages you have a concatenation...

    When editing an existing entry in the termbase from Studio, using your own input model (and not using the default layout), only the short form input model is shown: only fields that have content are displayed. It would be great if in Studio there was...

    If you need to create additional resources such as language processing rules or filetype settings for example you currently have to create them from scratch each time. It would be very helpful if you could clone an existing template for the resource and...
  • Advanced tracking of edited fuzzy matches

    In some scenarios related to machine translation it is crucial to see the exact editing process once the fuzzy matches have been found. Let's say, we are using two TMs: Primary.sdltm and Secondary.sdltm. User may use part of the fuzzy match found...

    For any sentence ending with a number/date and a full stop it could be possible to automatically add full stop for target segment once the placeholder has been copied. Example: This sentence ends with a number 2312. This is a translated segment...

    • 0 Comments
    Hi, it would be faster if step 3 (user profile) would be set before step 2 (details about current user) but for this these details would have to be saved within the profile (if not already implemented that way). Why change the order? As these details...
