  • Improve Find&Replace to retain segment number

    • Under Community Review on
    • 2 Comments
    It's time to drop this ancient method of how Studio presently handles find&replace - a function every translator uses CONSTANTLY, especially when working with machine translations. Studio should not throw us to a random segment after finding and replacing...

    • 1 Comment
    Hello, It would be nice to have a way to retain comments from the source file to the target file without the need to manually recreate the comments in the translation. In this case what I am looking for is a way to deal with source files that have...
  • Suggest a TM export name when exporting from SDL Studio TM to TMX format

    • Under Community Review on
    • 3 Comments
    When you try to export a Studio TM to TMX, Trados, unlike other applications does not suggest a name or even gives the same name of the TM, and instead you have to type that yourself! Time is money, and this should be a very simply thing to do like...
  • Separate categories for new segments and MT translations

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    Currently there is only the category "New/MT" which shows either segments that have been MT translated or segments that are still empty, depending on whether the project was configured to use machine translation or not. As it is, there's no way to tell...

    Hi, it would be nice to have a search function in file type preview, especially for larger files. With that feature you could check if the file you preview contains certain characters e.g. { in order to check if you need to set up tag conversion rules...

    There does not seem to be a way to access the messages from the IntegrationApi.Document, that are reported through the message service -> generated from the project API batch tasks (Verify). The message service is accessible from the batch task / GlobalVerifier...
  • Automatically suggest or build term entries while working in the Studio editor

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    Some phrases tend to appear more frequently in the document, and not all users build their term bases on the fly. What I'm suggesting here is more or less what AutoSuggest is already doing, but simply using this information to automatically build a termbase...
  • Offer unmerge option for physically merged files

    • 0 Comments
    When you create a new project with translated SDLXLIFF files, you can choose to physically merge the added SDLXLIFF files during project creation wizard. This is being done so that In-Country-Reviewers on the client side can review a few bilingual DOCX...
  • Backing up Translation Memories

    • 2 Comments
    It is good practice to regularly export your TM's as a tmx so they are safe from problems associated with database corruption. It would be a very nice feature in Studio if you could set a warning that reminds you every week (configurable) that you need...

    • 1 Comment
    when I export the sdlxliff for bilingual check tags are given numbers, but these numbers do not show the revisor which kind of tag is used. So the revisor cannot check whether e.g. the tag "bold" is placed correctly. I would prefer to see the tag as it...
