    Dear SDL Studio Developers, I hope you can allow such a feature in SDL Studio, instead of having to run the Spell-checker on the whole file, as it currently stands. That would indeed save a lot of time in so many scenarios. Stay safe. Sameh...

    Trados is supposed to display the same AutoCorrect behaviour as Word, but it does not for Spanish. It insists in changing "dumb quotes" to «angled quotes» rather than “smart quotes”. The «angled quotes» quotes may be correct in Spanish, but often “smart...

    When using Check that source and target end with the same punctuation there are some TUs flagged which should not be flagged when it comes to Greek. In Greek, the character for the question mark is ";". Therefore, a sound QA check should expect the...

    I have pretty big base of terms and I always need the translators (who are not working with SDL and usually work with the word files generated from editor) to pay attention to them. It would've been really helpful is SDL Trados Studio had a feature of...

    We have terms in our termbase that are marked either Recommended, Not Recommended or Synonym. Not Recommended should not be used in the target text, but it is obviously handy to have them listed in the source so that any translator can see where they...

    My computer has high specifications, with excellent CPU and 32GB of RAM. However, when I use Trados to process an Excel worksheet of about 300,000 words (Characters), which contains approximately 50,000 segments in trados, Trados almost completely freezes...

    Many applications (even other CAT tools) continuously autosave in the background without any user intervention or disturbance (progress bar) or need to click Ctrl+S. Ctrl+S should be a relic of the past in a modern user-friendly application.
