Post title: Not possible to add new term pairs as you translate
I published a video on translating with Translation Workspace XLIFF editor a few months ago and I made the same observation: there is no way the translator can add new term pairs to the selected termbase (or any other termbase, for that matter) "on-the-fly", in the editor. The philosophy of the tool seems to be translators are only supposed to use terminology supplied to them by their client. This is a major drawback (from a translator’s perspective).
I can’t recall anything about autosave, and my free trial expired long ago. I wouldn’t surprised if there were no such feature.
"Translation Workspace is a great product", says "Freelancer, China" in the Geoworkz blurb. Well, I’d beg to differ...
