Exact string matching when filtering?

A frequent issue that I’ve ran into is when filtering strings for short terms, I would get a bunch irrelevant results that are partially matched. Is there a way to only return results that are 100% match to the string or at least order the results by which have the least amount of characters? It is very difficult to translate languages like Chinese without this.

Hello ,

Thank you for contacting Transifex.
On the editor you will see when choosing text as filter that there is an option to return exactly the 100% match of the string searched.

By enclosing your search text inside double quotes or brackets you will see that only the 100% match will be returned.

Example without double quotes

Example with double quotes

Hint Remember to always enclose first into single quotes like in example.

Kind regards
Christos
