You are currently working on UAT 

I'd like to reproduce this pop up "Dependency file not found" from my side

I have posted a question asking any workaround about it (to suppress).
But, have been told that is impossible.

I tried to make the same message from my side.
But, have failed.
Do I need some more programs ? or simply missed how to use SDL Trados Studio ?

Thanks

    Nobody helps others. I found  my own  workaround. So, very satisfied with my result. In the above link, SDL engineers said, they will make some way for customers. But, the solution does not delivered to customer yet. And, nobody knows when will it be. I, have made it.

    This is utter nonsense Kelly.

    Nobody will have said they will solve the problem of people working directly on SDLXLIFF files that don't contain the embedded file... at least no other way other than to send the original source file with the sdlxliff, or use Project Packages.

    You have created a workaround for a problem that isn't really there.  The message is purely information anyway.

  • The bit you think needs fixing Kelly is this, which occurs with WorldServer packages:

    Root Cause
    This may happen when the original source file is too large to be embedded in the SDLXLIFF file. Instead it is linked as a separate dependency file. When creating packages, these files are not automatically added to the package.

    And you have not fixed this at all.  You have merely prevented the informational message from appearing.  Seems a waste of time to me.

    I have made a workaround for a real problem that do exist here, your customer. The message is purely annoying, nothing else. What is the point of the message ? For me, it does not have any meaning.

    If you want to inform the user, it should be appeared once when the (problematic) project started. That is good enough.
    If you need to stop the user, need to prevent the problem project used, do not make annoying pop up. Just block it. Simple.
    You have to select one of above. Current procedure is just nonsense at least to me - And I am a regular customer not a strange idiot beginner.

    Good point.
    I do not care about "WorldServer". Why do I have to care about the world ? That seems to be you job, not mine absolutely.
    I care about myself only. That is good enough and difficult enough.

    You have different meaning of "fix" than me.
    I have perfectly prevented annoying pop up message from appearing. Seems a brilliant work to me.
    That is a fix to me.

    I'd like to recommend you to select some nicer wording for your position as a help desk head.
    I did not "wasted" my time. So you did, I guess. You are working nicely for your customer.

    Just as I said - you are just so clueless...

    That message concerns particular SDLXLIFF(s), not project, so it appears when opening the SDLXLIFF, not project.
    And no, it's not there to stop user from anything, it's there to inform user about a problem and it offers a way to fix the problem too (did you notice that you can search for the missing dependency file right from the message?!). Once you fix the problem, i.e. find the dependency file (if you have it somewhere, of course) and let Studio embed it into the SDLXLIFF, the message is gone. Otherwise it will of course pop up every time you open the SDLXLIFF... because the problem is still there.

    Really? So why your rhetoric suggests the exactly opposite from the very first time you appeared on this forum as your Kelly Edward identity?
