  • Add language code to filenames after Generate Target Translations (batch)

    • Under Community Review on
    • 4 Comments
    It would be very helpful to have an option to add a suffix (e.g. the language code) when generating target files in bulk (through a Batch Task). I sometimes have 50 small files that need to be delivered with a language code at the end of the name, but...

    When you open a window in Studio and wish to close it again because you don't need it after all it would be helpful if the Escape key could close it. For example, use Edit Comment to see a comment in the segment you are working on, then decide you just...

    • 1 Comment
    Currently, one needs to start typing in order to see the term suggestions. The old functionality of ALT+arrow keys appears defunct. It would be useful if we could still use it to enter terms. I.e. ALT+down arrow to enter current term, ALT+ right arrow...

    When performing QA checks against the termbase, if the Term Repetition Threshold (in the termbase AND termbase verification settings) is exceeded, the message states that the term is not present in the segment. This is a serious nuisance because it...
