Show terms in Term Recognition window in alphabetical order?

Hello everyone,

It seems that there is no way to show terms in the Term Recognition window in alphabetical order. This is not such a big deal if you only have five or six entries in it, but with large TBs connected, alphabetical is the only way to find anything. Is there a way to do this that I have missed, and if not, are there any plans to implement it? This is extremely important for me.

  • Hi Michael

    I wonder why you consider this as "extremely important". The Term Recognition window displays only the terms that it found in your current segment, so the probability that you have dozens of term hits within one single sentence is very low.
    Personally, if there are many terms, I would then prefer them to be ordered by their appearance within the sentence rather than alphabetically (I mean they don't appear in alphabetical order within your sentence, do they?).
    My two cents!

  • The appearance is in the order found in segment, from left to right - at least in languages I know. You cannot change this order to alphabetical.
    However, you can sort AutoSuggest hits alphabetically.
    That said, after having spent the last > 6 years on using Studio, I do not see any necessity to have that changed. Personally I find the way AutoSuggest works much better than what MemoQ does. Sometimes I hit the CTRL key still thinking what will come next - in Studio nothing happens, but MemoQ shows text in segment, which I often do not want. This does distract me from thinking...
