Is this only an issue for me and nobody else? Anyone feeling like confirming that adding tags works fine for them? /Martin | | | Natalie Poland Local time: 22:29 Member (2002) English to Russian + ... Moderator of this forum SITE LOCALIZER
Why do you want to add tags? It is much easier to work when you have ticked the "Copy source when no match is found" option. This way you have already all necessary tags in the target segment and just need to replace the text with your translation. | | | Martin Asplund Italy Local time: 22:29 Member (2013) English to Swedish + ...

Thanks for replying, Natalie. Having the source copied to the target would reduce the flow of writing quite a bit seeing as you would need to delete the inserted text instead of simply writing and adding the tags as you go, much as using formatting when writing in a normal word processor. Also, this seems a rather weird behaviour on Trados' part, so I wanted to figure out whether it is something that can be sorted, something that is only an issue on my computer, or if it is a general bug in the ...

Also, this seems a rather weird behaviour on Trados' part, so I wanted to figure out whether it is something that can be sorted, something that is only an issue on my computer, or if it is a general bug in the program that cannot be avoided. Edit: Also if you have a fuzzy match where a part of the change is in tags it is much easier to simply insert tags than marking them in the source and then copying them to the target.. /Martin

Is this issue only occurring for me? I've reinstalled Trados 2019 but it seems to persist. Would anybody be able to check if the behaviour is the same on their computer?

So likely it is something strange with the keyboard settings or shortcuts I use, will have to look into it more thoroughly to see if I can figure it out.
