Problem with number recognition in Trados 2015.

Question

Hello, today I bring a problem with number recognition in the translation memory. I have several segments with numbers that should have been automatically translated (the auto substitution is enable in the TM). Instead I have a 91% match in the memory. The problem is that this match is not a real match. 
 
 Look at the TU with match in the "Translation results" window. The source segment contains the number "300", in the translation memory I have a 91% match with "> 7.5" (for Trados the only difference is the "> " symbol) and the translation was mixed thus "> 300 ". (I have the same error in all segments).

Why is this happening? Any idea?? 
 Thanks a lot.

Hello Tomas, 
 I tested this to make sure it works and if I confirm the first segment this is what I get: 
 
 So after confirming the first into the TM the rest are all auto-propagated correctly as shown here. 
 Now, to get your result I have to remove all numbers on their own from the TM and create a TU that has > 7.5 in the source and the same in the target. Then I can see this because the number itself is a placeable and Studio just compares that placeable on its own to a TU that contains source with a greater than sign, space and then the placeable.: 
 
 So the only thing I can conclude from this is that you do not have an active TM present that actually has a translation in it for source 2560 . So maybe confirming your segment number 69 and making sure it is written to the TM will resolve your problem for the rest?
