When I was interactively adding terms to my termbase while translating in Trados, I was able to do this in 2015, change the order of equivalent terms by pressing Shift+Alt+UP/DOWN arrows. I cannot find the way to do it in 2019 version. Has it been removed?

Any ideas?

It helps with the speed when displayed in certain order in autosuggestion popup alternatives. I am sure it can be done in Multiterm.

Thank you
Best regards

found the possible reason Nov 30, 2018

Hi,

I had a project with multiple termbases. I have noticed that they had the function I mentioned.

So apparently, if I create the termbase Multiterm 2015, then I can utilize that function in Trados 2019.

If I create the termbase in Multiterm 2019, then the above problem persists.

Also just noticed that Trados 2019 crashes and shuts itself off occassionaly. Not sure if it is related to that.

Hope it helps to others
