    Dear SDL team, Currently, the installers provided on the Download page of the user accounts are by far not up-to-date (for Studio/MultiTerm 2019, they date from December).This means that much time is wasted for downlaoding and installing a deprecated...

    Most of my files should be translated to 5 languages. It would be beneficial to have an optional "Prepare files" step where I could lock certain segments (usually because they should not be translated), or change the source text before creating projects...

    I don't know if this is achievable, but it would be helpful if the term information was displayed directly on the highlited term in the Trados Editor on mouseover. Ideally including images.

    I'd like to see an add-in that would transliterate selected text from one alphabet to another, e.g. Cyrillic Russian to English, with options for selecting the transliteration standards required, e.g. GOST7.79B or ISO9. Much of translation from a language...

    Can you add an option to pin projects in the project overview section, so they will always be visible in the overview? Just as in Firefox, where there's an option to pin tabs, just for projects that need to be open all the time. It will avoid accidentally...

    Changing the font size should definitely be more flexible and easier to apply. Going to options and setting font adaptation is not really a straightforward solution. Adding few icons to increase or decrease font sizes instantly should be fairly easy to...
