Before you begin
Make sure the QA Checker provider is enabled. To enable QA Checker, go to and select the QA Checker 3.0.
Procedure
- Display the Regular Expressions page by doing one of the following:
- Go to . These default verification settings are used when you create a project or start a new translation using the Translate Single Document command.
- Go to the Projects view, select the project you want to work on, and, on the Home tab, select Project Settings. These verification settings apply to the active project and the active file.
- Go to the Projects view, select Create Project Template, and in the Project Template Settings specify the project template settings and save the template. The verification settings which occur in a project template can be used when you create a new project. You may want to create a project template if you have several customers that require different settings.
- Decide whether you want to specify regular expressions:
- For all language pairs (generic settings) - From navigation, select .
- For a specific language pair - From navigation, select .
Tip: If you do not specify settings for regular expressions at specific language pair level, Trados Studio defaults to the generic settings.
- On the Regular Expressions page, select the Search regular expressions checkbox.
- Fill in parts of text you want to search for in the Description, RegEx source or RegEx target boxes.
You cannot use the options in the Condition drop-down for filtering. However, make sure not to select any of the options in the Condition drop-down that disable the text boxes you can filter from.
- From the Action drop-down list, select Filter item.
Only the regular expressions that correspond to your input are displayed.
- To remove the filter and display the entire regular expressions list, from the Action list, select Clear filter.
