Hi Steven,
Thank you for your suggestion.
I have this app installed, but using it can create problems. Namely, the app does not check for duplicates, etc. and will add the term directly.
Over time, this will result in in multiple repeated terms in the TB.
Best regards,
Pavel

You should make sure you have the latest version. I'm sure it does not do this and works in the same way as the ootb add term in this regard.

Hi Paul,
1. Rapid Add Term will only warn you in those cases when the exact same source term exists in the TB with the exact same translation. If the source term exists with a different translation, or if the translation exists with a different source term, it will add the new member to the corresponding existing pair without letting you know.
2. That is not always optimal, as in those cases when the existing pair contains two or more source terms paired to two or more translations, then there is no way of telling if adding another source term or another translation to those complex correlations would equal a true translation before first checking it.
3. Also worth noting is that after addind a new term or translation to an exising pair using Rapid Add Term, the term recognition window is not refereshed, so there is not way to tell what exactly has happened.
4. What we need is that we get a warning in those cases when either source or target already exists (Trados does it), but without the 42+ seconds of waiting. Plus, in the cases under item 3 above, we need the term recognition window to auto-refresh and show where the new term or translation has been added.
5. Why can't there be a native solution that works quicker? Why can an add-on do in a second what Trados does in 42+ seconds?
Best regards,
Pavel

Hi Jerzy,
What do you mean by a fixed window? I have disabled the autohide feature of the window, but there is no difference.
Best regards,
Pavel
Yes, this is exactly what I meant. It's strange, because in my video you can see, that adding a term is indeed very fast. When I have the window put to auto hide, it takes much longer.
