Hi Ali,

I can add terms on the fly. 

Trados Studio 2024 and MultiTerm 2024 work well together, allowing for real-time term addition during the translation process without any issues (See the screenshot).

However, when creating a termbase during the project creation process, you cannot customize the storage path for the termbase file.

This issue has not been resolved yet.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for letting me know adding terms on the fly works for you. That's useful.

I'll run a Windows Repair on Studio and MultiTerm, then. That's bound to sort the issue out.

I don't create new termbases during the project creation process but I've just tested it and can agree that, yes, the path just goes straight to the Studio termbases folder with no option to add it anywhere else.

Maybe start a new thread to raise this for someone at RWS to help you with?

All the best,

Ali

I have projects up to 30k words to finish and adding to Multiterm in Studio doesn't work.

I did a repair of Studio, but now Studio 2024 doesn't start.
I should never had upgraded to a piece of junk that's not properly tested.

It's four months and no fix.

Lucky I have Studio 2019 trial version to use (which I had to install because of another problem with Studio 2024 and Multiterm 2024).

If you were a car manufacturer you would be sued and fined, but software companies can get away with anything it seems.

Hi Thomas,

This sounds like a problem that would be easily solved by asking properly for support by starting a new thread.

May I suggest that you click the +New button top right of your screen to create a new thread, with a simple title with explanation below so that someone can contact you from RWS IT Support. Then, someone such as Paul will be able to set up a support case for you. 

Give as many details of the problem as you can, and, for example which version of both Studio and MultiTerm you are using (they need to be the right version for each other) and what steps cause the issue to arise.

If Trados 2024 were a car and needed a service to run properly, you wouldn't put in the garage and borrow an older car. You'd pay for a service. Asking for help here, you don't even need to pay to get Trados 2024 and MultiTerm 2024 working properly together. One of RWS's support 'mechanics' will be able to fix it for you 

All the best,
Ali

Thank you. I will get to it when it all has settled.

I'm glad to read that, as it may help others who have similar problems if you can post the solution that RWS Support found.

Thank you

Ali

It was already noted four months ago, but I didn't find any solutions or comments. Just to repair, but that had the opposite effect.
I see now from the behaviour in 2021 that it might have been working fine in 2024 as it shows the window fast and then minimizes it to the left.

Default behaviour has always been to open the side window but because of the high resolution I now have it's difficult to notice when it is minimized.
