    Often I have ideas about how software could be better whilst I am actually using it. It would be great to have a link from the software that allowed creation and submission of an idea as you thought about it.

  • Automatic conversion of units in addition to localisation

    • 4 Comments
    Trados 2007 used to have the ability to convert units as well as localize them. So go from inches to centimetres for example, or GBP to Euros. This feature was actually removed because of a lot of adverse feedback from users where rounding errors and...

  • A fully customizable empty ribbon to get all necessary commands one needs every day - instead of changing ribbons

    Ribbons in Studio are quite good. But as advanced user I would like to have just one ribbon for me - where I could put these parts together which I need every day. For example I would need "change segment status" and "display filter" together in one...

    By default all reports have the same names, and the most recent one is added on top, but it requires a click to display them. In many cases it can be misleading and confusing with several reports sharing the same name. My idea is simple - add a timestamp...
