Quick Place does not work properly in Trados Studio 2022 SR2 17.2.10.19084

After installing the new version Trados Studio 2022 SR2 17.2.10.19084 the Quick Place function does not work properly.

Screenshot showing Trados Studio interface with Quick Place function activated, displaying a pop-up list with items labeled 'cf' that cannot be selected using the Enter key.

When you press Ctrl+Alt+Down to bring up the list you are able to navigate the pop-up list with arrow keys but it is not possible to place an item by pressing Enter. Nothing happens as if no key has been presses. It is a major blunder as it affects basic functionality. Naturally one can reach for the mouse and click a desired item but is a major annoyance.

I updated three separate TS setups and the behaviour is the same, so it is not a local problem. I looked at the list of shortcuts if there are any conflicting entries but I cannot find anything obvious that would cause this. Any ideas?

  • I realised that now to place an item from the list it is required to press Ctrl+Enter rather than just Enter. When you press Ctrl+Alt+Down this brings up the pop-up list with the first item on the list highlighted. So if you never release Ctrl and then press Enter, this will place the first item on this list. Unfortunately when holding Ctrl you are unable to navigate the list and select anything else from it but the first item.

    When you release Ctrl you can navigate the list but it impossible to place any item because the lists disappears when you press Ctrl again.
