    Please offer an option to confirm a segment without updating TM. It's useful for only number segments, or segments where source is same as target (e.g segments containing only placeable), etc., where you can use this option to confirm such a segment...

    Hi, there. Although the accuracy of machine translation is improving day by day, it is unlikely that the number of translation errors will be zero in the near future. Based on the observation that the longer the source text, the more complex it becomes...

    Please make Preview Pane wrap the text after zooming in, to save translators from having to scroll laterally, which is a waste of time.

    Studio QA can compare the number of brackets on source and target sides. However, when bilingual translation is applied across a project (extra measurements, references to untranslated UI, etc.), this check can generate dozens of False Positives, making...

    I know there are loads of possible columns for the Files View. Unfortunately the one column which would be really useful to me is not there (yet): one where I can jot down my own notes regarding a specific file. A specialised version of this idea would...

    In general, auto-save is fast and unobtrusive. For larger projects (I'm currently working on a file with 110,000 segments) however, the process can take a minute or longer. This is made even more frustrating when autosave starts when I'm three letters...

    When searching the TM from the TM view in Studio, segments are displayed in a chronological order starting from the oldest segments. When filtering on content (while looking up words in source or target etc.), you can jump to the next page but not to...

    Having multiple permissible translation units for the same string is common, especially when going English > Another Language as English is, well, full of ambiguity of the pérvert vs pervért kind. When you come across a unit that requires a different...

    When you choose New under File Types settings and select HTML , we can create an entirely customized HTML parser. For instance, SGML files can be handled as HTML files. When you are adding each element and attribute to define their tag types and translate...
