    Hello. It would be great if there was added functionality in Studio to search for specific tags. I'd like to search for, and add QA checks for, missing spaces around conref tags in DITA files. Thanks Luke

    In our tests of new SDL releases, so far, we only found out about new bugs when they cause issues during our tests. If we were automatically notified whenever SDL publishes the info on a new bug and maybe even provides a temporary workaround until a fix...
  • Allow Tag Verifier to treat tags with different ID as different tags and detect such mismatch

    • Under Community Review
    • 1 Comment
    Please see the attached screenshot. Tags in segment 364, 369, and 372 are mismatched in Tag ID mode between source and target. However, Trados Studio's Tag Verifier cannot detect it (while Xbench can). According to Studio support: When processing...
  • Option to exclude locked segments from analyses and completion statuses

    • Idea Delivered Partially
    • 4 Comments
    As discussed for example on https://community.sdl.com/product-groups/translationproductivity/f/90/p/7212/56926#56926 , it is not very helpful that Studio includes locked segments in analyses and completion status. It makes it very difficult to follow...

    Hello, I'd like to be able to open up a Fuzzy Search in my termbase for a term I have highlighted in the Editor window. There is a Termbase Search shortcut, but that only opens the Termbase Search window and I have to enter or copy the term I want to...
  • "Date" column in "Files view"

    Good morning, what about having an “Inserted at” or “Added at” [dates] column in the “Files view”, similar to the “Created at” column of the “Projects view”? (I have not found this possibility) This could be helpful when creating a Project which...
  • Allow termbase filters in Studio's Terminology Verifier

    • Under Community Review
    • 5 Comments
    As far as I know, it is currently not possible to use termbase filters in Studio's terminology verifier. Strangely enough, this option does exist for term recognition, allowing you to use only subsets of the termbase, with faster and more precise results...

    • Under Community Review
    • 1 Comment
    Good morning, In a recent project, some segments have been splitted with a hard return. In instances like: If I select the text for seg. 247+248 and perform a Concordance search, the text being looked up in TM concatenates and reads " Maintenance...
  • Please make optional whether Find & Replace window is always on top or NOT

    • Under Community Review
    • 3 Comments
    Hi, I have noticed that in the Studio 2022 version, the Find & Replace windows stays always on top, even when switching to completely other programs (websites, PDFs etc.), which is extremely annoying! There is no need for it to still stay on top over...
  • Add a negation option to filetypes that support the use of regex

    • Accepted, Not Yet Planned
    • 3 Comments
    Refer to this thread as an example: https://community.sdl.com/product-groups/translationproductivity/f/171/p/21196/73595#73595 Sometimes the regular expression you need to create to tag the non-translatable content can be very complex. For example...
