    When editing an existing entry in the termbase from Studio, using your own input model (and not using the default layout), only the short form input model is shown: only fields that have content are displayed. It would be great if in Studio there was...

    SDL Trados Studio is lacking an important feature which is recognizing Think Cell elements on MS Power Point. Once you save the target, you discover that those elements are left without translation and you have to do translate them manually. It will be...

    I believe it would make sense to have an option to quickly display the fragment of the source document, but without any file settings applied - just the raw fragment of the source file around the current segment. Sometimes it brings additional information...

    Hi, Could you please please add an option to deactivate the automatic installation of a desktop shortcut when installing/updating Trados Studio/Multiterm? It's quite nagging to remove the desktop shortcut everytime Trados gets an update. Not everyone...

    When this option is activated, the respective segment is not only assigned the symbol for "Translated", but is also automatically written into the TM that is set as "Update". This behaviour is not obvious, but the option should rather be called "Confirm...

    Hi! Identical regex matches/repetitions cannot be carried out in batch mode such that an identical (terminology) error can be corrected across various segments (such as AutoPropagate). The advanced display filter and search/replace function should be...
