Modification of the number of fuzzy matches viewed

Dear Community!

Is there any possibility to change the number of the fuzzy matches viewed in Multiterm? The program  offers only the first 25 results found, and in the alphabetic order...

Thank you in advance for the response!

    "Question improvement suggestion": Please provide the version of MultiTerm you are using and any steps you have already taken to try and resolve this issue.

    In the meantime, based on the information you have provided, here is a suggested answer to your question:

    Hello,

    In MultiTerm, the number of fuzzy matches displayed is indeed limited to the first 25 results. This is a built-in feature of the software and cannot be directly changed. However, you can use a workaround to see more results.

    Step 1: Go to the 'Options' menu in MultiTerm.

    Step 2: Select 'Search Options'.

    Step 3: Lower the 'Fuzzy Match Value' to a lower percentage, such as 65%.

    Step 4: Click 'OK' to save your changes.

    By reducing the fuzzy match value, you are expanding the search range, which will consider more candidates and increase the likelihood of finding a higher percentage of fuzzy matches. Please note that this may slightly slow down your search process, but it should not be significantly slower.

    I hope this answer addressed your question. If not, please reject the answer, add the question improvement suggestion information, and click the RWS Community AI checkbox on the right to try again.

  • For those who may be interested in this option:

    at least, in Multiterm 2022, WE CAN change the number of the fuzzy matches shown in the main Multiterm window. So I finally did not have to use the workaround.

    To modify this option, go to File-Options-Search:

    Screenshot of MultiTerm 2022 software showing the Options menu expanded with 'Buscar' submenu visible. The 'Numero maximo de resultados' is set to 40 with a checkbox for 'Hacer coincidir los idiomas'.

    Easy peasy!

    Best regards!
