When you’ve got those under your belt, here are the next five that I think you’ll need to learn very soon: Highlight the term (in source or target) that you want to search for in your TM, click F3 and the concordance results window will appear with the term highlighted. Alt+number – Apply TM look-up results from the translation results window using Alt+1, Alt+2, etc.Ctrl+Comma – This produces a drop-down list of placeables (numbers, abbreviations, etc.) and tags from the source segment, which you can insert by selecting the right one with the arrow keys and clicking enter.This will add the translation unit to your translation memory (TM) and move the cursor to the next unconfirmed segment. Ctrl+Enter – When you’ve finished translating a segment, confirm it by clicking Ctrl+Enter.In addition to using it to produce the finished translation, I always click Shift+F12 as soon as I open a document to translate, just to check that the file is going to save OK. Shift+F12 – This brings up the “Save target as” dialog to save your translation in its native format.Note that they apply to the default user profile, so they may differ if you’ve selected the Trados or SDLX user profile. Here is my personal list of five shortcuts you should be using the very first time you open Studio. If you’re a new Studio user you’ll want to become familiar with certain shortcuts as soon as possible, but in no time you’ll discover there are scores of them. Shortcuts in Trados Studio speed up the translation process by keeping your hands on the keyboard, so you only resort to your mouse when it’s unavoidable.
