Source and target language selection layout for large sets of languages

Regarding multiple source/target languages in Mantra, if the list grows enough, would it be possible to automatically switch to a drop-down instead of radio buttons/check boxes (as with configuration)? The list of languages to select can get long. Normally, drop-downs contract after making a selection, but perhaps it could remain expanded and allow for selection of multiple languages?

  • Hi Adrian,

    In SDL Managed Translation 17.5 released earlier today, 10th May 2017, we have incorporated some of the designs we reviewed relating to the selection of source and target languages.  

    Many thanks for raising this idea and helping to make Managed Translation a better product for our customers!

    Cheers,

    Ian

  • Hi Adrian,

    We have been working on some designs for this feature with our colleagues in the User Experience team that I would like to review with you and request feedback. I will contact you directly to discuss this further.

    Cheers,

  • Hi Adrian,

    Many thanks for raising this suggestion. Presentation of languages from the Create a Project page in Managed Translation is indeed an area we plan to enhance from a user experience perspective, most notably for users that have a large number of source and/or target languages to select from.  I will move this idea forward into review.

    Cheers,

    Ian
