Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a way to assign a penalty to matches from a project's project TM. I can add penalties to master TMs just fine in Translation Memories and Automated Translation, but for project TMs this doesn't seem to be possible.

Our projects usually contain several files with some cross-file repetitions. However, we're usually working on several files at the same time so matches from the project TM haven't always been reviewed yet. Adding a penalty to these matches would alert the translator to the fact that the suggested translation may not be finalized yet.

Failing that, is there any other way to make matches from the project TM stand out in SDL Trados Studio 2017 Professional?

Thanks in advance!
