Good morning:
I am working on a project where terms in the source text appear in both lowercase, uppercase or lowercase with initial capital letter.


The glossary terms are configured not to be case-sensitive.

The Capitalization option under Predictive typing and AutoPick is set to Intelligent capitalization based on the source segment.

Good morning:
I am working on a project where terms in the source text appear in both lowercase, uppercase or lowercase with initial capital letter.


The glossary terms are configured not to be case-sensitive.

The Capitalization option under Predictive typing and AutoPick is set to Intelligent capitalization based on the source segment.

MemoQ displays all terms perfectly in the Translation Results window; however, the predictive typing does not work in cases where the terms of the source segment and the termbase are different.

Example:
Source: Component
In the Translation Results, the termbase match is: EN: component ES: componente

Since the capitalization is different, it does not allow me to type the C and then take advantage of predictive typing, so I have to type the entire term.

Does anyone know if there is any setting I am missing so I can benefit from predictive typing even when the capitalization is different?

Thank you for your help. ▲ Collapse
