How to remove internal fuzzy matches from a sdlxliff file?

Question

Hi experts, 
 
 I have Trados Studio 2015. One can remove the same segments from a sdlxliff file by using Export Unknown Segments but is it possible to remove internal fuzzy matches also from a sdlxliff file by using Trados or some other software? If no CAT tool can do, we may try to do so by copying the text from a sdlxliff file and then pasting it into a MS Word as it might enhance the chances for doing so by using some other software/application/method. 
 
 Is it possible at all? If not, should not Trados include this feature in its next version? 
 
 Thanks and regards, 
 
 Chopra

Hi Kriti Chopra 
 
You can do this using the SDLXLIFF Toolkit: 
 
 appstore.sdl.com/.../ 
 
Use something like this to slice the file: 
 
<=99 AND >=30 
 
That should get you all fuzzies

Hi Kriti Chopra 
 
If you wish to exclude fuzzy (sorry... I explained how to do the opposite!) then you could just check the PM, CM and use =100 as your expression in the Match Values(s).

Hi Kriti Chopra 
 
Not your fault... I ignored the fact you really did mean "internal fuzzies". Always a contentious item and as far as I know there is no mechanism in Studio for identifying potential fuzzy matches and exporting them. You can export unknown segments, and you can export frequently occurring segments, but you can't set a value to use and then say "Export frequently occurring similar segments". 
 
I think it would be a useful addition from the perspective of preparing projects as you say... why not suggest it in the ideas site.
