Hello everyone,

I was wondering whether it is possibile to get Trados to "mark" segments/matches that were retrieved from a translation memory linked to the project, especially after exporting the file in its original format.

Up to now I have myself marked what was/wasn't retrieved from the previous translation memory (e.g. with bold/italics), but maybe there's a way to get Trados do it automatically? For example, Wordfast uses colours to distinguish matches and new tra

Before you start translating, you can use a filter to select only new translations. Go to Advanced Display Filter 2.0, open the Previous Origin list and click Not Translated to see all new translations. Then click Reverse to see all other segments populated from your TM.

With studioView plugin, you can also save the new translation segments to a file (for reference of whatever else you may need it for).
