    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...

    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...

    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...

    Snippet (.flsnp) files are commonplace in Madcap Flare, Studio 2017 should really support these. I have a workaround of entering *.flsnp into the File Dialog wildcard expression field (so that Studio can then recognise the snippet files as translatable...

    One of our vendors uses a Macintosh machine for translation projects with Trados Studio. Mac is not quite "Studio friendly", but they have found a workaround to use it. The problem is when we add GroupShare to the equation: they can download and work...
