    If you see the picture, there are two files with 371 words and 2164 words. The previous file is translated up to 85%, the latter up to 88%. Which file is quicker to finish as a translator? The one with 88% progress rate? Of course not, but you have to...

    When creating a file type in Studio, the default value for Translate setting seems to be "Always Translatable", but it should be "Translatable (except in protected content)". Otherwise, the user has to set the value manually for all tags in the file type...

    The idea is to create a Trados Studio "spinoff" (or a view pane) able to display an sdlxliff file in the same way the editor does, just quickly, with no modifications available or project created, but with all the metadata available in the editor for...

    Currently one has to click Reports > and then the most recent (topmost) Analyze Files instance. This is counter-intuitive and it can perplex non-expert users who would expect to see the latest analysis displayed automatically.

    In some cases it could make sense to save PDF directly from Studio. Also, there are situations, where a linguistic review is done against a PDF file, and it could be useful to do this kind of work from Studio, including commenting feature within the...

    We often use other people's GroupShare account to backup their work. So, easy identifying and switching account is useful. Now to do so, we select File > Setup > Servers and there is no shortcut for this action.

    I translate similar content for one client into both Spanish and Catalan, and I always use AnyTM to ensure consistency between the two languages. However, that causes the following problem: Imagine, I have to translate T-shirt into Catalan. This is both...

    I'd like to see navtitle attributes added to the default parser settings for DITA files. Because these are not extracted by default, we need to add in something similar to the following highlighted rule for new DITA projects: Let me know if you need...
