  • Provide word count report by reading segment status and match values

    • Idea Delivered Partially on

    Studio does not provide word count reports based on segment status and match values. I believe TMS and Passolo can provide word count reports based on segment status and match values without having TMs where all the TM matches originated from. This...

    Dear Trados Support Staff, I work with Trados Studio 2017. Is that possible for you to give an option for me to have a border line between segments? Please see the red line in the image below. The reason is that when translating I prefer to have...

    When creating projects, you probably don't need all the different "flavours". It would be a good idea to have a way for customizing the list (just keeping what you need).

    Hi, We are very actively using the ability to display track changes from MS Word in the Studio Xliff files for certain pharma customers. We can then further track change that content in Xliff as we make changes during the review change after translation...

    Hi there, when having to delete project templates, we have to do so via setup/project templates, where we can select only one template and delete one by one. After each template you delete, the window jumps to the top, so you have to search for the...

    Hi, We have seen a small increase in the number of requests for .key files. Especially with customers who are predominantly Mac based. Given that we have an OpenOffice set of filters, I am wondering if perhaps we can look at a .key filter as well...

    • 8 Comments
    Some of us have quite a lot of custom segmentation rules beyond the default ones in Studio. Especially if you're translating software, you end up with rules for segmenting tags like \t, \n, <li> etc etc But you can't save/export/import them so whenever...

    • 6 Comments
    It would be nice to see the type of segmentation hint shown next to the “Translate” column under [File Type]→“Embedded content” in the “Tag definition rules” box. Since there is always a value (Include, Include With Text, Exclude, May Exclude) for the...

    It would be great if it was possible for the user to decide where the Studio 2022 folder should be created on the computer when installing Trados Studio. Right now, it is automatically created in the default Documents folder. For some translators working...
