I use SDL Trados Studio 2017. When I translate a project, segmets with AT status (like web links) are only shown in the Translation Results panel but never applied and confirmed automatically.
Can I make such AT segments get applied and confirmed automatically?

Uncritical reproduction may be a hazard Jul 13, 2019

I'm afraid I can't answer your question, but I feel that a caveat should be voiced: some web links have language-specific elements ('en', 'fr' and the like) requiring exploration of the site to see what the target-language link should be for the same item. Without prejudice, obviously, to the desired answer here.

Not a weblink-specific problem Jul 13, 2019

Not only web links may have the AT status. Anyways, I'd like them to be applied and confirmed automatically. Is there a setting responsible for this feature?

Hi,
Did you have any answer about this or did you find the answer by yourself? I'm having the same concern right know.
Thanks

perhaps try this? Jun 28, 2020

You can do it this way:
1. Pretranslate the file(s)
2. Filter for "Automatically translated"
3. Click on the little square above the segment numbers (top left) to select all segments
4. Right click over a segment number, select "Change Segment Status" then "Translated"

Solution Jun 28, 2020

I checked the "Apply machine translation if no matches found" box. Now, AT is added to a target segment but I still need to confirm it manually.

Some yes and some no Jun 30, 2020

Thanks to both for the answer.

What I can't understand is why (in the same project!!) the AT segments are confirmed automatically by Trados in some files but in other files I have to do it manually. I don't know if it's something due to each file' setting or what...
