    Term recognition window display problem Contextual fields in Term Recognition tool are essential to document your terminology. BUT if you put more than a few words, you will not be able to read your own comments as the text in the fields is not wrapped...

    The spellchecker using the MS Word dictionary works quite well, but I had hoped that the 2017 version of Studio would come with an Undo function. When spellchecking there is a lot of "Ignore All", and it is very easy to make a mistake, especially if the...

    It is good practice to regularly export your TM's as a tmx so they are safe from problems associated with database corruption. It would be a very nice feature in Studio if you could set a warning that reminds you every week (configurable) that you need...

    It would be more logical if the ability to add a TM, or a TermBase, were available as shortcuts in the relevant window in the editor, or as a right-click option. So just one-click and select the appropriate resource

    I suppose it would be a useful idea. I suppose that many of us add new files to existing projects at later stages, but it's difficult to filter them out once they have been added. Now you can sort them by size or status, but not by date.

    In addition to allowing an SDLTM to be updated with the contents of a TMX, TTX, ITD, SDLXLIFF, it would be a nice enhancement to increase support for XLIFF in general and allow the import of a correctly formed XLIFF into the translation memory directly...

    If there is a single digit number in the source text, this is included in the drop down box when Ctrl+Comma is pressed to add tags to the target. My suggestion is to only include numbers of two digits or more in this list. Individual numbers are obviously...

    Right now, when you lock content, because it is tagged as not translatable, Studio does not perform any whitespace normalization, so it will keep the spaces you have in the source file. SDL Support reports that this is because they are trying to preserve...
