New spellchecker window

Spell check dialog in Trados Studio showing 'Serviceschleife' not in dictionary, with suggestions partially visible and buttons 'Ignore All' and 'Change All' placed closely together.

1. The multi-line suggestion field is not useful because it only displays a few initial characters.
2. Another button is hidden behind the close button.
3. The “Change All” button is and was previously much too close to the “Ignore All” button. If you hold the cursor over “Ignore All” during the check because you are concentrating on the reported word and there is a lot to ignore, the cursor can easily slip and you accidentally click on “Change All”. This can have disastrous consequences.

    Presumably you are talking about Trados Studio 2024?  Or is this still an older version you upgraded to?

    Looking at the size of your fields and text this is clearly a resolution problem that you could probably resolve by working at a higher screen resolution or by adjusting your Windows display scaling settings.  If you reduce the scaling percentage (e.g. from 150% down to 125% or 100%) the full dialogue box and buttons should display correctly.

    If this is indeed Studio 2024, it may also be worth checking whether you are on the latest cumulative update, as some UI layout issues have been addressed in recent builds.

    If you are on the latest version and this is still a problem then this is probably something that will get addressed in a future update as the teams are slowly but surely working through the UIs and bringing them into line with modern display scaling.  In the meantime, the only practical workaround is to adjust your display resolution or Windows scaling so the dialogue renders correctly.  Although I appreciate that may not be helpful for you if you need the larger display.

    Thanks in advance for confirming your build number and for reporting the problem.

  • I tried it out:

    Screenshot of a spell check window in Trados Studio at 125% scaling. The word 'Strahlerlaser' is not in the dictionary, with suggestions like 'Strahlenlaser' displayed.

    This is the window at 125% scaling. This is not a solution.
