termbase hitlist settings in package?

Sébastien Desautel

Hello,
we have often difficulties to let our translators set their termbase hitlist options correctly, regarding the display of some metadata like status (preferred, accepted, forbidden). It would be nice, if these setttings could be part of the package we send. Have you planed anything in this direction?
Or is it possible to set them through the API or by editing a "ini" file in the SDL folders? We would then share an adequate plugin.
Thank you

With kind regards
Sébastien

    Hi Sébastien and all readers of this post

    I support this request and would like to add that I am missing a feature that automatically shows the "status" field when there is one. Currently, if a term has two synonyms, one being "forbidden" and one being "approved", both terms will be shown in the same way in the term recognition window, withholding the important information that one of the two terms is the one the translator should NOT use.
    Unless he knows that he needs to modify the hitlist settings accordingly, he may think that both terms can be used, which defeats the use of a status field.
