  • Use of Windows convention keys

    It would be useful if SDL used the Windows conventions for keys. The Escape key should work to exit any dialog or dropdown or otherwise. I repeatedly hit the Escape key to exit a dialog thinking there is something wrong with the key, only to realise...
  • Add /translationUnit argument to command-line argument /openFileTm to allow better integration with Xbench

    If a second argument called /translationUnit was added to the /openFileTm, it would be possible to open a Studio TM at a given translation unit. This would allow third-party QA tools to open a memory at a offending segment. For example, the segment...
  • change German translation for deletion of source files in project view

    Hi, could you please make a slight change to German translation (maybe for all other languages too if needed). Right now, when you delete some source files to a project and need to delete them translation literally says: Die Datei(en) werden dauerhaft...
  • Make Find resulting segment shown on top of editor

    • Under Community Review
    • 3 Comments
    Sometimes it happens that there is a segment broken between two files at the semi colon, such as Part 1: Getting started with Studio The client won't allow me to edit the source (to merge segments), so I want to check that I have correctly capitalized...
  • Highlight upLIFT segments in Editor window

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    The upLIFT feature is handy but I have noticed that it results in a significant upturn in the number of minor errors slipping through during translation because the changes are only marked in the Segment Matches window but not the editor window, so the...
  • add filter to options > shortcuts

    Hi, would it be possible to add a filter with option (radio button) search in feature / search in shortcut so that looking up specific shortcuts would be faster? Sometimes you see that there is a shortcut set that you interferes with your normal...
  • Enable Studio data to be stored e.g. under %APPDATA%\Roaming instead of "My Documents"

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    Currently, Studio stores data under "%userprofile%\documents\Studio 2017". We need to store this data somewhere under "%APPDATA%" in our multi-user environment. It needs to be able to use custom paths to store this data (via configuration). From our...
  • Editor -> Mark segments and show only marked ones

    • Under Community Review
    • 2 Comments
    It would be useful to have the possibility to mark segments and filter them at the end, so you see only the marked segments. Maybe by ticking a box in the segment number field and/or by short-cut. This way you could just make it easy to go through these...
  • Free a stuck license from within our own online control panel without having to contact tech support

    • Under Community Review
    • 7 Comments
    It would be useful for us to be able to free up our own license when the license gets "stuck" i.e it is showing as being in use when in fact it is not in use. The only way to free our license up when it is in the stuck state is to send a support ticket...
  • Apply tags EXACTLY to selected text

    • Under Community Review
    • 3 Comments
    If I want to select text in Studio (2017) including the trailing space character, I can: one word = double-click; several words = use mouse from start to end of string including last space. When I then apply a pair of tags from the source by holding...
