    More and more banking and financial institutions are using Workiva to produce their regulatory and prudential documents. Facilitating Trados Studio integration with Workiva will make many translators' lives easier. At the moment, we need to export content...

  • Explicitly select file type settings for alignments

    The alignment tool tacitly uses the file type settings of the currently active project, which is just confusing. It would be helpful to have a selector for these settings, so that the user can choose either default settings (as in "File->Options"), settings...

    Add a feature to display title automatic numbering or item number in ordered list in the Word file type. If you are working on a long document where paragraphs and/or titles are numbered, this is currently difficult to find where you are in the document...

    When I use more than one Translation Memory in my projects, I miss an option for analyse files that tells me from which TM are the fuzzies and pretranslated segments retrieved. Like a breakdown for each memory. I think this feature would become very handy...

  • Make Project Packages/Return Packages More Flexible/Easier to Use

    There are a lot of fixed rules around importing and creating packages. I think packages should be much more simpler, i.e. no need for comparing Guids/Project Ids or anything like that. It should be as simple as selecting import and the files being overwritten...

    When one has multiple autosuggest providers, many duplicates appear, they could be from a single provider or across providers; a setting to eliminate duplicate suggestions would reduce unnecessary clutter.

  • Save target fail-safe test during the project preparation stage

    Based on the fact that 90% of our support cases are based on issues with saving target file, I think it would make sense to automatically try to save the target file during the project preparation stage. Simply one of the 10(?) steps that are completed...

  • Studio should not see segments starting with Capital and Lower case as being 100% the same

    I have a text which has a lot of lists. In Dutch, after the bullet there is a lower case. They are marked in the Editor as 'LI+'. The author also reused these items which are in the lists, but as plain text or paragraphs. In Dutch they must then start...

    I frequently have to compile a table of abbreviations used in the target language version to compare against the list ot abbreviations supplied in the source text version. Naturally there is not always a one-to-one mapping - and not everything is rendered...

    • 0 Comments
    When you make changes to the translation file (e.g. merging or splitting segments), you need to go to Batch Tasks and select Translation Count option to update the word count. I think it would be much better that the app itself recalculate the word count...
