    Hi, in German depending of what the client wants you need different formatting for numbers. It's fine that with Trados Studio 2021 you can now add your own number formattings but the issues comes up with autopropagation. - if you only need to follow...

    Although complex processing sequences can be written with AHK, its use is not easy for novices. A macro recording capability (possibly generate an AHK sequence) in Trados, such as that provided with MS Word, would solve this problem.

    It would be nice to see the type of segmentation hint shown next to the “Translate” column under [File Type]→“Embedded content” in the “Tag definition rules” box. Since there is always a value (Include, Include With Text, Exclude, May Exclude) for the...
