    Dear SDL Community, I have spotted this feature in Studio, when setting up a multi-languages project where you are prompted to assign every single language to a user in the last window "Review Project Packages". This "Assign to:" field is obligatory...

    "Record Source" is a truly great app that helps me identify which document a given segment comes from. However it doesn't record the precious info automatically on all the TMs I use for the project and set to update. I first need to select the TM I...

    A Trados project has sub-folders, like so: When you want to create a package, it currently presents itself has individual files, which is a problem when you have say 15 sub-folders with a total of 75 files. It would be ideal if there was the possibility...

    In case you are handling translation projects with very large termbases, it can be useful to extract a project termbase, so that only the terms that appear in the content for translation are available for the translator. With this, there is no hassle...

    Often I have ideas about how software could be better whilst I am actually using it. It would be great to have a link from the software that allowed creation and submission of an idea as you thought about it.

    Project preparation phase is usually taking a while (for obvious reasons), so it would make sense to offer an option to automatically extract terminology from the source document and instantly create a termbase with it, adding it to project settings....

    Currently there is no option in Studio to only suppress forbidden term hits for AutoSuggest. You could define a filter in your termbase (use MultiTerm Desktop or MultiTerm Administrator) and use it in the Trados project (at Home > Project Settings...
