Hi,

I think that it would be very helpful to see the original filename when a segment from a TM is displayed. Is there any way to make Studio 2009 add this info to translated segments?

Cheers
S

Sandly only through manual entry Feb 15, 2012

One of the many good features of predecessor programs (in this case "old" SDLX) that SDL did not care to include with Studio (probably because they were afraid to bloat the sdlxliff).
You will have to add a Field such as "File Name" the TM "Fields and Settings" and manually enter the name of each file in the TM settings and then select it in "Update".

Thank you Susanne for your answer, it's really sad - it seems like such an obvious and useful function.

@ Giles - I will certainly suggest it, it would be so helpful!
