MultiTerm2014: search function and termbase manager does not work

Hi,

I am just getting started with MultiTerm and was following the video on working with  terminology in MultiTerm. However, I cannot use the search function. I have opened the sample termbase and entered a serach term into the search field, then pressed enter, but nothing happens at all. When continuing with the tutorial the termhase management pane is described. However, when I open the termbase management pane, I can only see some statistics, but nothing else. I don't have access to any of the functionalities (export/ import, filters etc) described. Did anything go wrong during installation?

Thanks

Ilse

  • Hi Ilse,

    When you are in the terms view and you enter a search and press enter you should be taken to the the hitlist window and a list of found terms displayed in green.  However, if you searched for a term in German for example and the direction of your languages was English to German then you might see a blank screen like his:

    Where 1. is the language direction, 2. is the search term and 3. is the hitlist window where the results should be shown.  So you can see my results are blank.  If I reverse the language direction so that I search German and not English then I see this:

    Now I have results.

    I'm just guessing but perhaps this is what you are seeing?
