QAdesk Changelog — release notes

v0.10.2

Current release

Fixed Report segment numbers now match your CAT tool. The Seg # in exported reports is the number you search by in Trados, memoQ, Phrase, Wordfast and XTM — previously empty structure placeholders in SDLXLIFF/IDML files could inflate the count and shift every number. Reports now count exactly the real, translatable segments, so a report's Seg # lands on the right segment.

v0.10.1

Earlier release

New Folder-watch — turn on 👁 Watch for changes on the Dashboard and QAdesk keeps an eye on your imported files' folders. Re-save a file in your CAT tool and QAdesk re-imports it and re-runs QA automatically — the issue list refreshes on its own, no clicking. New files dropped into a watched folder are imported too; deleting a file leaves your project untouched. Saved per project, fully offline.

v0.10.0

Earlier release

New Grouped, colour-coded QA reports (Excel, PDF, HTML) — findings are grouped by check, Xbench-style, and colour-coded so problems are easy to scan. Consistency issues cluster same-source (or same-target) segments together and colour the odd-one-out differently, so the segment that breaks consistency jumps right out.
New Reference Library — a global, cross-project store of past bilingual files and TMs. Search your whole body of past work alongside the current project (scope: Project, Library, or Both).
New Monolingual Word (.docx) QA — check Word documents directly (spelling, checklist, punctuation and more), no bilingual conversion needed.
New Import a whole folder at once with Select folder… — the entire folder tree in one step.
New Xbench checklist interop — import and export ApSIC Xbench .xbckl checklists, plus a native .json format for lossless round-tripping between QAdesk projects.
New Multiple spell-check dictionaries — load several Hunspell dictionaries and pick per project, or let QAdesk auto-select the one matching the project's language.
New Headless command-line QA — run reports straight from the installed app with QAdesk.exe --qa, with a --fail-on gate for CI.
Improved Branded reports — every exported report now carries the QAdesk logo and a "Generated by" stamp.
Improved XTM support — XTM Cloud XLIFF exports are detected and labelled automatically.

v0.9.8

Earlier release

Fixed Learn more on a startup tip now opens the feature it describes. When that feature needs an open project and none is open, it shows a clear prompt to open one — instead of jumping to Projects.

v0.9.7

Earlier release

New A refreshed brand — a new QAdesk logo and wordmark, consistent across the app and the website.
Improved The About screen is product-first and made for translators, by a translator.
Fixed The Learn more button on a startup tip no longer opens an empty screen when no project is open — it takes you to Projects.
Fixed A stray line crossing the icon when the sidebar is collapsed.

v0.9.6

Earlier release

Improved A cleaner, product-first About screen, with a link to qadesk.net for updates and docs.

v0.9.5

Earlier release

New Automatic update checker — QAdesk now lets you know when a newer version is available, with one-click download. It's private (a single version check; no telemetry, nothing about you is sent), works offline, and can be turned off in Settings.

v0.9.4

Earlier release

New Next → button and n/↓ keyboard navigation to step through QA issues; ignoring an issue now advances to the next one automatically.
New Editing fonts — per-side font & size for source and target text (e.g. a larger Nirmala UI for Devanagari targets).
Improved Smarter false-positive handling: annotation tags, tag-only segments, URLs/emails, and company/legal-entity names are no longer wrongly flagged as untranslated or as tag mismatches.
Improved Spelling ignores names carried verbatim from the source; bracket/quote checks compare against the source so cross-segment splits and apostrophes aren't flagged.
Fixed Company names and copyright lines left in the source language are surfaced as a warning, not a major error.
