    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...

    The current situation is that Studio only updates when you run the application. The MultiTerm update is not synchronized with Studio in any way. It would be great to update both applications in one go. OR(!) change the updating policy entirely. Instead...

    When creating a Project and applying the Batch-Task Pre-translate files the CM- and 100%- matches are confirmed even if there has been set a length restriction in the QA checker. After running the task the too long translations for this particular project...

    ... just the same way as multi-volume archives do. Say Trados could skip 100% matches and repetitions for calculation purposes and then equally divide all other segments (fuzzy and brand new) by any requested number. It would be even better being able...

    Just a minor suggestion (not extremely required but still useful). Sometimes clients ask me to translate comments, which are added in text boxes over the text in pdf files (not the text itself). When you deal with pdf files generated from complicated...

    Hi, We use a custom-defined input model and layout. Every time we open a termbase in Studio we have to go to termbase viewer and set the right input model and layout. We would like to be able to set an input model and layout which is active by default...

    It's often necessary to create splitted packages containing different wordcounts... e.g. 18k words to vendor 1, 10k words to vendor 2, 7k words to vendor 3, etc. This is currently only possible using 'least common denominator' - like create 2k-sized packages...

    PLEASE make the SDLXLIFF Tookit a separate application again. The way it's "integrated" in Studio 2017 is really extremely terrible to use. In fact it's pretty useless :(

    It would be great, if we could view how many characters we have left out of our monthly quota in SDL Cloud MT. This could be displayed e.g. in the bottom bar or anywhere else where it's easy to monitor.

    When in QA Checker the boxes "Check for unintentional spaces before" and "French compliant checks (spaces are intentional)" are active, the QA Checker in a French text finds "errors" when there are spaces before "," (commas) and "." (dots), which is wrong...
