    Dear SDL Support Staff, I think it would be nice to be able to move the status column from the middle to the right (or perhaps the left) in the SDL Trados Studio. It should not be the centre of attention between the source and target columns. Many...
  • Locked Segments in Studio Analysis Statistics of Files View

    • Planned For Future Release
    • 2 Comments
    After activating the option "Report locked segments as a separate category", locked segments will be reported correctly as locked segments in the analysis report (and also in the filter results of the Editor view), but not in the Analysis Statistics tab...
  • Enable merging segments by default

    • Not Considering

    Merging segments across paragraphs should be enabled by default, also when translating single files. It is annoying that the options "Allow source editing" and "Disable merging segments across paragraphs" have to be changed in each project.

    Trados 2007 used to have an option "Use TM from previous analysis" It allows us to determine if it was more cost-effective to process the files in order. It would be a useful feature to have this during the project preparation under the Task Sequ
  • Selecting termbase or termbases to add your terms on-the-fly

    As simple as that - old projects automatically compressed and stored (each) within a single archive during "Mark as Complete" process instead of leaving the full structure on a drive. Of course Reactivating project would run the reverse process. Possibly...

    The analysis report is horrible to read. Please offer the possibility to adapt it to one's requirements (e.g. remove AdaptiveMT or Repaired words if I don't use it).
  • Button to quickly add a new segment to a TM

    • Duplicate

    Currently if you want to add a segment to a TM you have to make a file with your text you need to add, make a project (or use 'translate single file'), add the target TM, put in the translation and confirm. Wouldn't it be easier if there were a button...
