  • Group all translation resources in one place

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    Hi! In the project wizard, I think it would be a good idea to have all translation resources in one place (TMs, Autosuggest Dictionaries, Termbases and PerfectMatch files). By the way, I never understood why AS dictionaries where "hidden"...
  • Add a column with the name of the TM used in the Translation Results window.

    I saw a similar idea that talked about MT engines used in the Translation Results window. I think that's a great idea, being able to see at a glance the origin of all matches without having to click specifically in each of them. However, I wanted to expand...
  • Font size for comments

    • In Progress
    • 33 Comments
    Some of us have trouble to see very small font sizes, like comments. There should be a way to make it bigger. Generally speaking, anything that could be done to make Trados visually comfortable would be nice. Please note I use Trados 2021 and I have...
  • Option to exclude locked segments from analyses and completion statuses

    • Idea Delivered Partially
    • 4 Comments
    As discussed for example on https://community.sdl.com/product-groups/translationproductivity/f/90/p/7212/56926#56926 , it is not very helpful that Studio includes locked segments in analyses and completion status. It makes it very difficult to follow...
  • GroupShare Background Task Notifications in Studio

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    When you run an operation in Studio, such as the re-index of a translation memory, Studio becomes unusable until the background task on the server has finished running. As the task is being run on the server, not on the client, and something like the...
  • Termbase Fuzzy Search from Editor window

    • Under Community Review
    • 3 Comments
    Hello, I'd like to be able to open up a Fuzzy Search in my termbase for a term I have highlighted in the Editor window. There is a Termbase Search shortcut, but that only opens the Termbase Search window and I have to enter or copy the term I want to...
  • Allow termbase filters in Studio's Terminology Verifier

    • Under Community Review
    • 5 Comments
    As far as I know, it is currently not possible to use termbase filters in Studio's terminology verifier. Strangely enough, this option does exist for term recognition, allowing you to use only subsets of the termbase, with faster and more precise results...
  • "Date" column in "Files view"

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    Good morning, what about having an “Inserted at” or “Added at” [dates] column in the “Files view”, similar to the “Created at” column of the “Projects view”? (I have not found this possibility) This could be helpful when creating a Project which...
  • Support for fast keyboard users/speed up the user interface/fix incorrect ribbon behavior

    • Under Community Review
    • 3 Comments
    Currently, if I select a paragraph of text in Word with Ctrl+Shift+Arrow down, then copy it with Ctrl+C, then switch to Studio with Alt+Tab, Studio will set the focus to the ribbon and display the keyboard shortcut mnemonics in the ribbon. Typing or pasting...

    Hello, Our team has some ideas of customizing Translation Results window. Below is the screen from original Options > Editor > Translation Results Window, from Studio 2017, I guess it didn't change at all in 2019. Suggestions from our linguistic...
