"Question improvement suggestion": Please provide the version of Trados Studio you are using and any recent changes or updates you have made to the software. Also, it would be helpful to know if you have tried any troubleshooting steps already.

In the meantime, based on the information you have provided, here is a suggested answer to your question:

Hello,

From your description, it seems like you have set the character limit correctly in the Bilingual Excel settings. However, if Trados Studio is not flagging segments that exceed this limit, there might be a few things you can check:

Step 1: Ensure that the QA Checker is enabled. You can do this by going to Project Settings -> Verification -> QA Checker 3.0. Make sure the box for 'Check segment length' is ticked.

Step 2: Check if the 'Maximum segment length' in the QA Checker settings matches the limit you set in the Bilingual Excel settings. If they are different, the QA Checker might not flag segments that exceed the limit set in the Bilingual Excel settings.

Step 3: If the above steps don't resolve the issue, try resetting your Trados Studio settings to default. You can do this by going to File -> Setup -> Reset to Default Settings. Please note that this will reset all your custom settings, so make sure to back them up first.

Step 4: If the issue persists, it might be a bug in the software. In this case, I would recommend checking for updates within the application or visiting the RWS AppStore for any available patches or updates.
