Fragment recall and Fuzzy match repair - upLIFT

Hi everyone,

I have just downloaded STUDIO 2019 trial and I have got a problem with the upLIFT feature. It just does not work.

I have created a new project, file-based TM with over 9000 TUs and changed upLIFT settings as per training video:

Trados Studio Project Settings window showing upLIFT settings with fragment matching options and minimum match values.

I didnt have to upgrade my TM, as the "upgrade" function was inactive, so I presumed it didnt need upgrading.

The screen below is the editor view of my project:

Trados Studio editor view with a segment containing 'puerperal fever' highlighted but no upLIFT fragment match suggestions displayed.

As you can see "puerperal fever" appears in TU1 and TU4, but no fragment match found for "puerperal fever" in TU6. There are no relevant fragments suggestions when I start typing the translation of eg. "puerperal fever".

I looked at similar queries on the forum, but could'n't find anything that would solve my problem.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated Slight smile

  • Hi Kasia,

    You could expect "puerperal fever" to appear as a whole translation unit fragment match if "puerperal fever" appeared in a previous segment by itself, or to appear as a partial fragment match if it were included enough times in the existing TM (provided it has been properly upgraded) that it would have been extracted as a partial fragment match. At the moment, with the TM not having been upgraded and the phrase not having appeared as a whole segment previously in your document, I wouldn't expect it to be offered as a fragment match.

    Do you see the orange triangle on your TM's name in your Translation Memory and Automated Translation pane from your Project Settings? For partial fragment matches to work, you definitely need to upgrade your TM. Has it been upgraded before?
