  • Only include target language-specific entries from a termbase when creating project packages

    • Idea Delivered Partially on
    • 23 Comments
    For some clients we work with large file-based termbases and a lot of target languages on a regular basis. When creating project packages, Trados Studio includes the entire termbase with all target languages instead of creating smaller termbases that...
  • Modify display order of TM custom fields

    • Under Community Review on
    • 1 Comment
    There is currently no way to modify the order in which custom fields are displayed in the TM view or in the Editor in Studio. Custom fields are supposed to be displayed in the opposite order of how they have been added (fields set up first, appear last...
  • Studio verification - multiple spaces

    • Under Community Review on
    • 1 Comment
    I like the verification task that looks for multiple spaces. A frustration however is that the program (Studio 2017 and predecessors) counts certain tags (typically in-line graphics, references, etc.) as a space, generating many false notifications for...
  • Fully customizable colors of the Editor view

    There are many translators who prefer black background and white or green text (Unix console style) instead of the typical setting. It would be great to allow users to customize colors without any limitations instead of selecting predefined themes.

    I Know there is an app works only with a file based TM file, but n o volunteer has come forward and create one for server-based TM. So it would be useful if SDL create a feature that support both.
  • Studio should guess where tags should be in the translation

    Hello! When editing a segment, it would be fantastic if Studio could hide all the tags and guess where they should be when pressing Ctrl+Enter. We would then have to check if the position is right. I think this could be done using UpLift and Segment...
  • Verification window should also show segment number

    The verification messages list should also have a column showing the segment numbers. Not just for sorting purposes, but also to avoid wasting time. For example, if based on the segment number I can see that two subsequent segments have issues, then I...

  • Studio window should not be lost in nirvana, after switching back from dual-screen mode to single-screen mode

    • Under Community Review on

    At program startup, Studio should check window coordinates saved in the user profile against what is currently visible on the screen, before displaying the Studio window on the screen. I often switch back and forth from dual-screen mode to single-screen...
  • Integrate "Regex Match Autosuggest" with Studio

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    Similarly to "Record Source", I use this excellent app a lot. The problem is that because it's not integrated with Studio, but is just a plugin, it automatically doesn't recognize the language direction you're using. In consequence, when translating from...
