Hi
Is it possible to setup TM with the option to overwrite older segments when you make changes in a 95% or 100% segment already in the TM?
SDL studio allows you to customise how the TM is updated when you have 2 identical segments (i.e: overwrite, merge or keep the latest version of the segment)
However, I dont find anything like in MemoQ TM settings. My TMs seem full of useless old segments that just add unwanted noise...

Any feedback or links on the logic behind MemoQ TM and advance setting would be highly appreciated

This is a setting of the TM you are currently using.
(You cannot change this setting on the fly, but have to create a new TM with your preferred settings.)

Thanks Jan

I will try this and explore it further. It sounds like MemoQ offers a more fixed on/off option of overwritting or adding as new TM segments
