  • Making the Assign to field optional, not obligatory during translator package creation

    Dear SDL Community, I have spotted this feature in Studio, when setting up a multi-languages project where you are prompted to assign every single language to a user in the last window "Review Project Packages". This "Assign to:" field is obligatory...
  • Project to retain "Set as Active" parameter

    • 0 Comments
    I don't know whether it's expected Studio behavior or not... but after closing the files for a project in the Editor view, the active project changes to the previous one, not the current. Can that be fixed so that active project only changes when "Set...
  • View context of TM and Concordance Search results

    I would like to be able to view the context of my TM and Concordance Search results . This would improve its use. There are several reasons for this: The same sentence can be translated differently because of its context. I often join very short...
  • Option to export both File Type settings and Embedded Content Processor settings into a single SDLFTSETTINGS file when an embedded content processor is enabled.

    Hi Community, Believe or not, engineers just assume when they export File Type settings file, the associated embedded content processor that is enabled, is getting exported at the same time. You can imagine issues this would cause by not having the...
  • Compressing of TM after batch delete exercises

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    Currently if you batch delete a lot of segments from your TM the physical size won't change at all. This is because we don't run the " vacuum " feature when carrying our maintenance tasks on an SDLTM. I think it would be a good idea if we added this to...
  • New Batch Task - Import "unknown segments export"

    • Under Community Review on

    Exporting unknown segments works really great for huge projects containing massive legacy matches so you can work "lighter" in "fresh" xliff files, but importing those results back to your original project is not really that straightforward... Could...
  • “Show most recent translations first” regardless of TM order

    • Under Community Review on
    • 2 Comments
    The option “Show most recent translations first” in the Search settings in Studio only applies to results from the same TM. When there are several TMs, the Translation Results and Concordance Search will show a hit from the first TM at the top, even...

    Morning, Would it be possible any automation to create a button in upper ribbon that can be customised to trigger a batch task WITHOUT any disruption other than eventually saving the current opened files? I mean triggering an "Analyze" batch task...
  • "# segments selected" in Editor View

    Just a short field in the bottom right section of the screen showing how may segments you have picked. It could be really helpful. I was just doing some searches in a tricky client and this feature would have been great, if available Cheers, ...
  • Comment box font size

    • In Progress on
    • 2 Comments
    While the user can customize the font size (and many other cosmetic or accessibility feautures) everywhere in Studio, surprisingly, it is impossible to do it in the comment edition box : It is sometimes difficult to write or read in it. It should...
