No kudos in Studio's standard TQA settings

Hugo Zwaenepoel

In the standard TQA functionality of Trados Studio, is it possible to give Kudos? Scoring settings only allow positive values (0-999), meaning you can only deduct points, not award.

I know the Qualitivity plugin has this option. I installed Qualitivity, watched the tutorial videos and tried it out but I am not interested in the metrics part, and the QA module looks kind of complicated to work with. The TQA of Studio is simple, easy and fine for my purpose of quality assessment, except for the Kudos part :).

Thanks!

    Hello Hugo,

    I understand your need for a Kudos system in Trados Studio's standard Translation Quality Assessment (TQA) functionality. However, as of now, Trados Studio's TQA system only allows for the deduction of points, not the awarding of them. The scoring settings are designed to assess errors or issues in a translation, hence the positive values represent the severity of the error, not a reward system.

    While the Qualitivity plugin does offer this feature, I understand that it may not be the ideal solution for you due to its complexity and additional metrics.

    As a workaround, you could consider using the comments feature in Trados Studio to highlight and praise good translations. This way, you can still provide positive feedback alongside the standard TQA functionality.

    I hope this helps, and I appreciate your feedback on this matter. It's always valuable to hear from users about potential improvements to our software.

    Best regards,
