Cannot receive suggestion from file-based TM when SDL MT is also running

Hi all.

Please refer to my screenshot below.

I have just followed Fiona and Nicole's webinar on SDL NMT and finally understood that by moving up and down the "Translation Memory and Automated Translation" selected resources, I am supposed to be instructing Trados on which resources I want to primarily receive translation suggestions from.

However, when I include SDL MT Cloud and MyMemory to the list of resources I want to use, I completely stop receiving translation suggestions from my file-based TMs (which were correctly working before adding the two server-based resources), which are more relevant for me.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Paola

  • Hi Steven,

    thank you for your reply.

    Yes, if I remove the MT, my TMs work again. The same happens (my experience 2 days ago)  if I only select my TMs at the beginning and then try to add MT: TMs stop suggesting as soon as I add MT.

    So far, I have been dealing with it by selecting the source text I want to have searched in my TMs and pressing F3. This way I only receive suggestions from the TMs back again, but it is rather time-consuming because I have to repeat the process for all segments and it would be simply more effective to receive suggestions from TMs and MT at the same time and in the same place in order to have all translation options in view.

    Any solution?
