can be achieved easily, I guess.

This is a terminjecter of mine
It has a "Setting" icon which select TB(s) you wanted to inject freely

this project has 6 TBs

Now I select (tick) the First, the Third and the Fifth
When you inject a term (pair) it updates proper TBs, of course

....Too easy.

it is too easy, because I/You do not have to consider other cases

But, RWS dev team girls and boys have to consider 100 or more other cases, quite seriously.
So, for them it is not that easy.

Probably a poor choice of words, but I imagine you mean you created a simple solution adding directly to the Access database, and this is what you mean by "too easy"?

What usecase(s) does this support, because even in this form it's an interesting approach?  Just single terms in source and target, or can it manage to handle more complex termbase definitions, use of synonyms, duplicate checking etc.  What is the basis for your work?

I think if you are going to share your work like this then at least explain what you have done and more importantly how it could be used by others if they see fit.  If you don't do this it's not really very helpful.

Here's an idea... I know you have built dozens of small plugins for all sorts of things.  You could create your own Private AppStore that users could add into Studio and then take the ones they see as being useful.  Your Private AppStore could require a "key" that you charge for and users would have a smorgasbord of plugins from you to choose from.  Alternatively price each one separately... that would be your call and your problem to licence and manage, but either of these would be a much better approach than you sharing comments on all your solutions but never providing any details on how you did it, or how users can benefit from them if they like what they see.

Thanks for idea
Sorry, that is not my style.

I prefer to read Questions and provide my Answers.
I am the only one who suggests a real solution here. Right ?

Have a good day.

Ha ha, it's your call of course, but I do think that with a Private AppStore you would end up with quite a few new customers (just don't charge hundreds of dollars for each plugin, like the RyS apps ;-)). A lot of your stuff looks very interesting, but is sort of hard to access/get info about for mere humans.

It is each persons charateristics or each ones situations.

You could manage your environment, so you just wait and see.
Fine, that is your job.

In my case, If I need something I will go to the end of it. And finish it.

Regards

In fact we have no idea!

hmm, I am sorry to hear that.

So, what's your option now ? 
"Fingers crossed" ? (from above commet of  Michael Beijer)
That is not much bad.

Good Luck To You.

You show us what you have achieved with an app/plug-in/etc that you have created but you don't make it physically available.

It just shows us that you can do it, which is no help at all if you don't make it accessible.

It isn't a 'real solution' if other users can't access it.

Why do you do that? To show how clever you are? To show you can do it? To challenge RWS or other users to try to do the same?

When I answer a question or try to solve a problem for another user on the Community, I give a solution that people can access, either by providing a series of steps they can follow or by giving a link to a solution on the Community or the Knowledgebase. That is logical.

What you are doing with your mystical solutions is not logical.

To be fair, Kelly's plugins are available, at least some of them, at: https://deeptranslation.blogspot.com/

But I agree that their rather cryptic style of communicating can be rather odd.

Ah, OK, I didn't know that, even though I have read many of Kelly Edward 's posts.

I've been working with Trados since years before Studio 2009, I know the software very well. So, I'm not a new user but I have been finding Kelly's posts confusing.

This must be because I don't read all of his contributions, I don't have time because I work long hours. There was no information in the posts that I remember giving where to find or purchase the solutions he presented.

Therefore, Kelly, can I respectfully request that you give details of your plugins site with a link or the name of the plugin you are suggesting for use and paste that into your posts when you present a solution? It would be SO useful to users who are unsure how to proceed and don't understand that you would like them to ask for it. Some users don't know how to access online help information even on the Community, so they would not realise that you have a site they can go to.

I have a series of texts containing my troubleshooting solutions saved on my OneDrive ready to copy and paste into a thread when I think I can identify the problem and help, with links to the online information I think will help them. Better still, many other users, including Paul  and Nora Díaz  have an excellent, helpful blog where they have recorded their advice and solutions so that they can post a link to the solution that is needed on the thread created by the who needs help. Probably boring for other users to read but for a user in trouble it is a quick and easy solution for those of us who enjoy helping people on the Community.

I am sorry if I have been misunderstanding you, Kelly. I would very much like you to make your clever solutions more available to the users you communicate with on the Community, in a way that our more hesitant or less able/experienced users can respond to. 

All the best,

Ali
