We have just released the latest update to RWS Language Cloud’s translation management capabilities and we would like to share the new functionality that has been delivered.

New features and updates are automatically added to your account so just login to RWS Language Cloud and they will be available immediately.

Content in Zip file support

We have now introduced the ability to upload source files as ZIP from the Language Cloud interface, this is in addition to the previously existing ability to use ZIP files from Customer Portal and Automated Connectors.

When you upload a Zip file the content will be extracted and you can individually specify if each file is to be treated as Translatable or Reference file. The original ZIP file will be kept as Reference file so you always have the original (though a user may opt to remove the originating Zip as well). Language Cloud will also keep the directory structure of the file or multiple ZIP files to handle situations where you have multiple files with the same name in different folders/Zip.

Ability to change the appearance of the product

Users can now change the default color scheme of Language Cloud to suit their liking and personalizing it individually.
You can configure this by clicking on your Avatar on the top right and choosing Appearance.

This will modify the main colors of the navigation bar, as well as certain main UI elements such as buttons and more.
We hope you like your new personalized Language Cloud and look forward to see the colors you will pick!

Project Management enhancements

You can now re-assign tasks assigned to the same user, across multiple languages from the Projects->Stages view.

Additionally, you can now open Project Details in a new tab, either through right-click or CTRL+click on the Project name.

More visual folder tree in Users section

We have now added a more visual representation of the Folder structure in the User section to make it easier to navigate the structure especially for larger tenants.

Additionally, we have added a filter option to this section to be able to filter users that have been sent an invitation or not.
