    Often I have ideas about how software could be better whilst I am actually using it. It would be great to have a link from the software that allowed creation and submission of an idea as you thought about it.

    Currently there is no option in Studio to only suppress forbidden term hits for AutoSuggest. You could define a filter in your termbase (use MultiTerm Desktop or MultiTerm Administrator) and use it in the Trados project (at Home > Project Settings...
  • New Batch Task - Import "unknown segments export"

    • Under Community Review

    Exporting unknown segments works really great for huge projects containing massive legacy matches so you can work "lighter" in "fresh" xliff files, but importing those results back to your original project is not really that straightforward... Could...

    Studio allows to export the profile and import it on other computers, allowing us to copy the settings to other computers in the office. However, the profile does not include the QA settings nor the Language Pairs settings, which have to be set on each...
  • Option to export both File Type settings and Embedded Content Processor settings into a single SDLFTSETTINGS file when an embedded content processor is enabled.

    • Under Community Review

    Hi Community, Believe or not, engineers just assume when they export File Type settings file, the associated embedded content processor that is enabled, is getting exported at the same time. You can imagine issues this would cause by not having the...

  • Automatic conversion of units in addition to localisation

    Trados 2007 used to have the ability to convert units as well as localize them. So go from inches to centimetres for example, or GBP to Euros. This feature was actually removed because of a lot of adverse feedback from users where rounding errors and...

    Project preparation phase is usually taking a while (for obvious reasons), so it would make sense to offer an option to automatically extract terminology from the source document and instantly create a termbase with it, adding it to project settings....
  • Integrate "Record Source" with Studio

    • Under Community Review

    "Record Source" is a truly great app that helps me identify which document a given segment comes from. However it doesn't record the precious info automatically on all the TMs I use for the project and set to update. I first need to select the TM I...
