Studio stuck on 'all mandatory items have to be completed'

I accidentally used the term base the client supplied instead of my own termbase and when I tried to add a new term to the termbase in Studio, a pane with the following message popped up: "All mandatory items have to be completed". After that, I was stuck. I could click on OK, but the pane simply appeared again, and again .... I wasn't able to delete the entry in the termbase viewer either, so the only thing I could do, was kill Studio and start again. Is there a 'normal' solution for this situation?

  • Hello,

    I'm sorry to hear about the issue you're experiencing. It seems like the termbase you're using has some mandatory fields that need to be filled in before you can add a new term. Here's what you can do:

    Step 1: Open the termbase in question.

    Step 2: Check the structure of the termbase to identify which fields are mandatory. These are usually marked with an asterisk (*) or some other indicator.

    Step 3: When adding a new term, ensure all mandatory fields are filled in. If you're unsure about any field, consult with the client or refer to the termbase documentation.

    Step 4: If you're still unable to add a new term, consider creating a new termbase with only the fields you need, or use your own termbase if it's suitable for the project.

    Remember, it's important to understand the structure of a termbase before using it, especially if it's supplied by a client. This will help avoid issues like the one you're experiencing.

    I hope this helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
