A new version of the LanguageTool Plugin for SDL Trados Studio 2017 and 2019 is available on SDL App Store.
https://appstore.sdl.com/language/app/languagetool-plugin/725/
In version 2.0, several important improvements were added and the known minor bugs were
fixed:
- You no longer need to set the language in the LanguageTool Plugin. The language is automatically taken from translated file.
- Segment locked content is not checked (not sent to the server) — less false positive errors.
- The name of the spell-checking rule is set automatically for all languages. You don’t need to enter it manually.
- Improved PerfectMatch segment exclusion from checking. It was possible that some ContextMatch segments were not checked.
- Improved saving of LanguageTool Plugin settings in the project after clicking OK.
- Fixed an error caused by several consecutive special characters used in regular expressions, e.g. “**” during spell-checking. The problem occurred, among others, in Spanish.
- The server console window now starts up immediately in the minimized version.
- Improved Ignore All function for spelling errors. Now only the same type of errors are ignored, not all spelling errors.
- Improved Ignore words … only if the same word occurs in source feature. Now only whole words in the source segment are taken into account for the comparison.
These versions of plug-ins, as well as future releases, support only SDL Trados Studio 2017 and 2019.
The plug-in is free.
