How to disable "Generate preview" (Générer un aperçu) once and for all ?

Hi everyone,

When working on Trados, as I am typing, a "Générer un aperçu" often pops up. I don't know the key combination that triggers it... and it is really annoying as it takes a lot of time to generate that preview, although nothing actually happens when it seems to be over. Then, when I confirm a segment, it seems to be trying again and again to generate that ghost preview, and Trados finally shuts down. The only solution I came with until now is to close Trados and re-open it, but it is such a waste of time.

It already happened a lot in Trados 2021, and now in Trados 2024.

I have deleted many shortcuts, to no avail...

Does anyone have a solution? I tried on the chat, but the person could not find any solution either. Did not even seem to be aware of that issue.

Thanks a lot,

Virginie

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

    Hello Virginie,

    To address the issue of the "Générer un aperçu" (Generate preview) feature in Trados Studio, you can try the following steps:

    Step 1: Open Trados Studio.

    Step 2: Go to the "File" menu and select "Options".

    Step 3: Navigate to the "Editor" section.

    Step 4: Under the "Automation" category, look for any options related to "Generate preview" or "Preview settings".

    Step 5: If you find an option that allows you to disable the automatic generation of previews, uncheck it.

    Step 6: Click "OK" to save your changes.

    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, consider checking for any keyboard shortcuts that may be triggering the preview generation. You can do this by going to "File" > "Options" > "Keyboard Shortcuts" and reviewing the assigned shortcuts.

    Additionally, if you are experiencing crashes, it may be beneficial to ensure that you are using the latest version of Trados Studio, as updates often include bug fixes and performance improvements.
