  • insert length verification/format check in filetype

    • Under Community Review
    • 5 Comments
    For custom created filetypes (like xml, regular expression or xml based ones) would be very useful to set some specific filetype constraints. i.e.: - length control check (absolute or relative to source) - regular expression controls between source...
  • Adding a TM or a TermBase

    It would be more logical if the ability to add a TM, or a TermBase, were available as shortcuts in the relevant window in the editor, or as a right-click option. So just one-click and select the appropriate resource

    Hello, please consider enhancing the out of the box standard verification to be able to count the number of characters in a line of a segment. This is not working now (below is the correct number of characters marked in yellow): Thank you.
  • A suggestion for improving the search result in the Advanced Display Filter 2.0

    • 2 Comments
    Since the Advanced Display Filter 2.0 was introduced in Trados Studio 2021 I have been using the feature very often and believe that it is a great improvement of the software in general. Ever since I started using the feature I have been wondering about...

    • Under Community Review

    It would be great if error messages of type "Different target in translation memory" would be part of the "QA Checker" tests, in the "Inconsistencies" dialog, and could thus be listed in the [Messages] window. For the moment, I have to use " Ctrl+Alt...

    I think it's high time to do that. Using external speech-to-text tools with Studio editor is not straightforward, and integrating the editor with some external module would help a lot. There are many users asking about it. Dragon is probably the best...
  • Provide shortcut for direct term insertion

    • Idea Delivered Partially
    • 1 Comment
    Currently, one needs to start typing in order to see the term suggestions. The old functionality of ALT+arrow keys appears defunct. It would be useful if we could still use it to enter terms. I.e. ALT+down arrow to enter current term, ALT+ right arrow...

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    When performing QA checks against the termbase, if the Term Repetition Threshold (in the termbase AND termbase verification settings) is exceeded, the message states that the term is not present in the segment. This is a serious nuisance because it...

    • 2 Comments
    Hi, in German depending of what the client wants you need different formatting for numbers. It's fine that with Trados Studio 2021 you can now add your own number formattings but the issues comes up with autopropagation. - if you only need to follow...
