    When a user opens a GroupShare project that is assigned to her/him, Studio suggests a location for the project files that is the same as the previously opened Studio project. This can lead to confusion, especially if the newly opened GS project is different...

    Hello. This is a very simple feature I've seen in another CAT tool and I found it to be very motivating and generally giving you a better overview of the workload. It also has an estimate of the time needed to complete the task: The speed is of course...

    Current Issue: When working on large translation projects with numerous files, it is common to outsource some files for translation and then receive the updated XLIFF files back. After pasting the updated files into the target language folder, Trados...

    One of the most common issues in Studio we hear from our customers is the good old "where are my files?". I really think there should be an optional separate window, which could help users track and manage their TMs, term bases and so on. Possibly even...

    Hi! External review is often required by some clients. Sadly, the bilingual Word approach is far from being stable and reliable. Three options: 1. Design a new feature from scratch (Excel please !) 2. Add a warning message, something like "Don...

  • Change the default behavior of inline tags in customized XML file types to be always a word end

    Jerzy Czopik

    • 0 Comments
    When adding a tag definition in a customized XML (or other) file type, you can define the behavior of tag. Unfortunately, usually literally NO one is paying attention to that. So when we get projects with customized file types, the inline tags are NOT...

    • 0 Comments
    When propagating a match the system often halts. Carry out the propagation process silently without obstructing the user's workflow. This is a very similar pet peeve to the autosave which produces a progress bar instead of doing it in the background without...
