  • Create default folder for GroupShare projects

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    When a user opens a GroupShare project that is assigned to her/him, Studio suggests a location for the project files that is the same as the previously opened Studio project. This can lead to confusion, especially if the newly opened GS project is different...
  • Translation speed in words per hour in the progress bar (like in MateCat)

    • Idea Delivered Partially on
    • 5 Comments
    Hello. This is a very simple feature I've seen in another CAT tool and I found it to be very motivating and generally giving you a better overview of the workload. It also has an estimate of the time needed to complete the task: The speed is of course...

    • Under Community Review on

    Current Issue: When working on large translation projects with numerous files, it is common to outsource some files for translation and then receive the updated XLIFF files back. After pasting the updated files into the target language folder, Trados...
  • Easily identify repaired 100% matches in Trados Studio

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    We can easily identify repaired 100% matches and 100 matches in Browser Workbench. However, they are all shown as 100% matches in Trados Studio. It will be helpful if we can tell the difference easily in Trados Studio. Moreover, adding a filter...

    • Under Community Review on

    Hi, could you add a feature to give a file a tag in Files overview as to which field it belongs (e.g. medical, legal, aso.) and show that tag in files overview? (maybe by adding a column to the file list) And this tag (file information) should also...
  • Search function for Concordance Search window

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    Sometimes, the segments found by the concordance search are quite large, and if the Concordance Search w indow is small, it is difficult to match the highlighted words in source and target, because they are not displayed side-by-side and you have to scroll...
  • Change the default behavior of inline tags in customized XML file types to be always a word end

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    When adding a tag definition in a customized XML (or other) file type, you can define the behavior of tag. Unfortunately, usually literally NO one is paying attention to that. So when we get projects with customized file types, the inline tags are NOT...
  • Propagate silently

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    When propagating a match the system often halts. Carry out the propagation process silently without obstructing the user's workflow. This is a very similar pet peeve to the autosave which produces a progress bar instead of doing it in the background without...
  • Merge segments across paragraph breaks without adding extra line

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    I suspect someone already commented on the implementation of the subj., yet I'd like to stress upon the importance of this. When I heard Trados finally implemented this, I was really excited. However, since then my enthusiasm has wilted somehow - because...
  • Quick Access Toolbar button for "Display Fragment Matches results if no TM lookup results"

    • Under Community Review on
    • 1 Comment
    The option to display results from the Fragment Matches window if the TM lookup returns no results is very useful when translating or reviewing, but not when preparing files or during sign-off (where it's actually very annoying). It would be useful to...
