Release Notes

Wildcard Search in Qterm

• Perform advanced term searches using the wildcard (*) feature on the Home and Browse pages.

• Use multiple asterisks to mark multiple missing sections in terms. For example, “Ministry*Education*Services” will find “Ministry of Educational Services” and “Ministry for Children’s Education and Health Services”. 
• You can combine this new feature with existing search types (Begins with, Contains, Exact match) to specify how you would like to search your term base(s) for the search phrase you entered.

New Inverted Color Scheme Update

The Inverted Color Scheme introduced in memoQ 11.2 has received major updates. For a detailed overview, check out our blog post. 

Inverted Color Scheme in memoQ Desktop Client

• In response to user requests for improved visual comfort, the Inverted Color Scheme was thoughtfully designed to assist users with visual impairments and to support translators working long hours, reducing eye fatigue. 
• The Inverted Color Scheme in memoQ builds upon the Inverted Colors option of Windows Magnifier, elevating the visual experience while prioritizing accessibility. 
• Magnifier’s high contrast has been toned down to ease eye strain. 
• memoQ users can now choose between two color schemes—Default and Inverted—under Options/Appearance, allowing color customization in each scheme. By default, the original colors for hit types in Translation Results (such as TM, TB and LiveDocs) are retained in the Inverted Color Scheme, but users can also modify these as needed. 
• The Inverted Color Scheme applies only to the memoQ main window.  For the best experience, use memoQ in full-screen mode and ensure that all memoQ windows are on the same screen to maintain consistent color inversion. 

Thai as a Source Language for TB and TM+

• Thai has been introduced as a source language for Term Base (TB) and TM+, following user requests. Please note that this feature is not available in Classic TM or LiveDocs. 

TM+ as the Default for New TMs in memoQweb

• All newly created Translation Memories (TMs) in memoQweb will now default to TM+ instead of Classic TM. 

Enhanced Accuracy with TAUS Generic Model v2

• The TAUS Generic Model v2 offers significantly improved accuracy for quality estimation, ensuring better translation outcomes. 

memoQ 10.2 (LTS) retires on January 31, 2025

Support for memoQ 10.2 (LTS) will end on January 31, 2025. The new LTS version, memoQ 11.2, will be supported until at least January 31, 2026. Users of memoQ 10.2 are advised to upgrade as soon as possible to ensure a smooth transition.

memoQ AGT Can Now Work with Online Projects and Be Configured as an Online MT Resource

memoQ AGT as an Online Resource 

memoQ AGT can now be configured as an online resource, enabling the central management of the API key. Linguistic teams can access the same MT settings, with the AGT API key configured by a PM. This streamlined approach enhances security and simplifies project management, ensuring a more efficient workflow.

memoQ AGT in Online Projects in WebPM 

memoQ AGT now supports online projects. Previously, memoQ AGT could only be used in local projects or in checked-out online projects. Translations can be initiated directly in WebPM, eliminating the need to check out the project manually. Project managers can now use AGT for pre-translation before handing projects over to linguists for post-editing. 

memoQ Now Supports 13 New North American Indigenous Languages:

Atikamekw, Babine-Witsuwit’en, Blackfoot, Dene, Dogrib, Innu, Michif, Mohawk, Plautdietsch, Stoney, Apache (Western), Hopi, Lakota

Other Features and Improvements

In-Country Review Tool Improvements   

• ICR users no longer need to copy and paste tags in the target segment but can use the new command available on the toolbar to insert any missing tag. 
• ICR users can now filter their review tasks not only by status (e.g., Delivered, In Progress) but also by projects (All projects or a specific project), which is especially handy when working on large projects or managing tasks across many projects. 

Delete memoQ Term Base Entry with One Click 

• Users with the proper permissions can now delete a term base entry with a single click using the new context menu item on the Translation Results pane, instead of deleting the source and target terms separately or opening the Term Base Editor.

Efficient Email Cleanup

• As a memoQ server administrator, you now have the option to delete all email notification data without archiving.  

LQA reports via API

• Project managers are now able to generate LQA reports via the API.  

TM Creation

• The optimization slider has been removed.
