IATE Real-time Terminology recognition issue

I am testing this app and I notice that it fails to recognize some terms. I suspect this could be to case sensitivity.

Trados Studio screenshot showing a warning that the word 'silver' is not found, although 'Silver' with a capital 'S' is found, suggesting a case sensitivity issue in term recognition.

With further tests, I see that a huge amount of terms is missed (despite having checked all domain fields in the settings).

  • Paul, I ran some tests with different settings. I used the plugin + a couple of other small local termbases (under 1000 terms each).

    Search all termbases sequentially = shows results from all termbases with delay
    Search all termbases in parallel = shows results from all termbases with delay
    Search hierarchically = shows only local termbase results (with delay) if IATE plugin is not default termbase.
    Search hierarchically = does not show local termbase results if IATE plugin is the default termbase.

    It is interesting that no matter the options, results are delayed, and that applies to local termbase results too. Also, the delays appear to be of equal length whether one selects 1 domain (with Search in subdomains checked), or all domains (with Search in subdomains checked).

    So I think it needs to speed up in order to be usable; not sure if the bottleneck is due to the provider or the technology to get the results displayed in Studio. I guess for each segment lookup multiple queries are sent to the API, so this could account partly for the slowness.

    Also, whether one leaves all term types unchecked or checked, results appear to be the same. So not sure what's the point of them being there. 

    Another point is that there is no unselect all subordinate text boxes functionality (by clicking Term type), so one would have to unselect each box manually or Reset to default to clear all check boxes in all categories.
