    Instead of the links to educational materials, which are only useful at the very beginning, the Welcome View could show the daily output from last 7 days, monthly output etc. Similar to running apps, with some simple achievements ("You have translated...

    Hi, Unfortunately, now it's impossible to add two (and more) server-based termbases from two (and more) different servers. When you try to do it, you get this message: "The termbase server has been changed so all the old server-based termbases will...

    When translating sometimes I need to change a term in a synonym. In MS-Word you get this with two clicks. In Trados/SDL I haven´t found a function like this.

    During the review stage, I like to have the Preview pane open, and taking up half of my Trados Studio UI. I then usually increase the font size of the preview a bit and start proofreading. Sometimes, it is necessary to click into a segment to make some...

    Hi there, The studio version before 2019 of project Wizard is frendly and easy to use. But in 2019 the language you need to use is always need you to spell the whole language out not just the few first character of them. And after that, there is character...

    It would be nice to be able to assign a penalty to single word terms, as these are prone to be erroneously populated in pre-translation and auto-propagation. A penalty with configurable number of words would be even better.

    Some users and customers prefer saving the target files with language code included in the name, f.e. "Sample_File_EN.docx" instead of "Sample_File". This definitely should not be a default behavior of Studio, but there should be an (advanced) option...

    This is something that has been bothering me for a very long time, and so much so that I recently even stopped using Studio's built in termbases altogether, both the regular ones and the Language Cloud one. I am currently (quite happily) using the amazing...

    • 2 Comments
    When running the spell checker in Trados Studio, after you click Add (to add a new word to the spell checking dictionary), before you can continue (i.e. after the word has been added), you have to press Resume every time, which is highly annoying. Could...

    We work on projects with templates set for a large number of languages as default. These cannot be edited as they are linked to the client system and used by the client to create their own projects. We also cannot currently recreate them with fewer languages...
