    Hi, This is the second suggestion. By design (and by correct design), if we turn track changes on in Studio, where track changes have been imported in via MS Word - whenever any changes are made, it will always default to the user of studio and then...

    Although "Confirm and Translate until Next Fuzzy Match" (Editor View Home tab) allows us to browse through our SDLXIFF files to find ALL fuzzy matches, including but not limited to those Target segments which are translated differently from their associated...

    Currently, SDL Trados has the great feature of translating bilingual excel files. So, you can only translate one-column excel file. But when there are more than one column you need to translate, there is no option to specify those columns. As you can...

    Currently, there is no way to determine the SDLXLIFF files on which version of Studio was used to save the files as latest. It's hard to investigate when has problem with translation files, whether the SDLXLIFF had been translated on the right Studio...

    It would be really helpful to be able to export all comments you add in the editor during translation so as to send them all to the customer for review. Currently, I still have to make a separate file with my comments or write them in an e-mail.

    By default all reports have the same names, and the most recent one is added on top, but it requires a click to display them. In many cases it can be misleading and confusing with several reports sharing the same name. My idea is simple - add a timestamp...

    • Under Community Review
    • 6 Comments
    Ribbons in Studio are quite good. But as advanced user I would like to have just one ribbon for me - where I could put these parts together which I need every day. For example I would need "change segment status" and "display filter" together in one...

    Currently, only projects created directly in GroupShare show an analysis report. It should be possible to include a report when publishing a Studio-created project, similar to the report included in Studio packages. This could help when planning resources...
