Another time-destroying bug in the QA process within Trados Studio

In my quest to streamline the QA process ("F8") in Trados Studio, I've discovered another pretty dreadful bug in the QA process. This turns up if your project manager (at your client or agency) has set up automatic QA checks when you prepare the return package.

Complete these steps to reproduce the bug:

  1. Import a project containing multiple files, let's say 30 files
  2. Complete 2 of these files as a part-delivery for your customer
  3. Now run F8 while still in the Editor. This completes quickly and shows you the results. Good.
  4. Now prepare the 2 files (of 30) as a return package. Click the two files to select them from the Files view, then right-click and select "Create return package"
  5. A prompt appears, stating that the Verify (F8/QA) process will now run
  6. Trados Studio now runs the QA check ... ON ALL 30 FILES.

After it has completed, you can then carry on with the last steps to save your return package.

Needless to say, the fact that Studio runs a Verify on all of the files when you haven't even touched 28 of them is, let's say, a bit non-intuitive.

Is this perhaps fixed in Trados Studio 2022? I'm using the latest version of 2021.

Thx,

Ed
