  • "Notes" column in Files View

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    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...

    Currently, one has to click Escape first to remove autosuggestions and then click Ctrl+Shift+L.
  • Segment age penalties

    • Under Community Review
    • 8 Comments
    The idea would be to allow a penalty to be applied for segments that have not been used for a long time, based on segment age as terminology might have changed or a translator might have improved in terms of becoming more succinct, or initial translation...
  • Tag view that combines Full tag text and Tag ID

    • Under Community Review

    It would be useful to have a tag view that combines Full tag text and Tag ID, so that both the meaning of the tag and correctness of the tag pair can be viewed, as I find myself endlessly switching between the two view to verify the tags.
  • Ask users if they really want to save the file without running Verification / Spellchecking

    Alternatively - this could be applied when generating target file or a return package. "Are you sure?" messages are always annoying, but this one would be a fully justified one. Example: "You didn't run QA Verification against this file. Are you...
  • Terminology Verifier settings

  • Apply tags EXACTLY to selected text

    If I want to select text in Studio (2017) including the trailing space character, I can: one word = double-click; several words = use mouse from start to end of string including last space. When I then apply a pair of tags from the source by holding...
  • Assign each package to every user

    • Idea Delivered Partially
    • 4 Comments
    When I create a project, I always need to assign each package to every user, when there are 40 languages, I need to do this 40 times... It's really a tough work with no meanings. Would you please help us to improve this step?
  • Drag and drop files to existing project in Studio 2019

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    It appears you cannot drag and drop files to an existing project in Studio 2019 to avoid the steps of switching to target and copying to target langs. And to benefit from this new feature you have to add files through the browsing window. Can the...
  • Fix the bug: Ctrl+Enter does not update TM

    • Under Community Review
    • 3 Comments
    The Ctrl+Enter command (Confirm and Move to Next Unconfirmed Segment) frequently fails to add a new translation to the TM or update a changed translation to the TM. This bug has been present since at least Studio 2015 and, amazingly, is STILL present...
