Whoa - just noticed there are Shortcuts in Preferences for handling misspellings - why can't they be used in the Spellcheck dialogue.
And why can't the context menu in the Spellchecker be the same as the one in Codeview with the inappropriate entries greyed-out. I notice the user assigned shortcuts are not displayed in that menu, whereas the industry standard shortcuts (Ctrl+X,C,V and A) are displayed. Displaying shortcuts in menu's is how I get to remember them. BR |

It can not be "enter" that is the default "ok" button trigger on some platforms.
I think I will just make the spellcheck dialog modal and keep the hard coded shortcuts. Dialogs can have their own dedicated shortcuts. And changing them after so long is just going to make people unhappy, for not much gain. Thanks |

Huh? That report is meant for users who want to embed fonts but limit them to the characters actually found in the text of the ebook. All of the chars are typically reported on a single line.

Modal?!?!?
Ummmm..... Granted, I don't use spellcheck all that much...I'm perfekt at speling...but when I do, I very often use the double click and then make multiple changes in the CV window. Having to re-run the spell check every time with its inherent re-organizing of the word list would make the process much more painful. Can we please brainstorm this a little more before making life-altering decisions?? ![]() ![]() |

They represent two different spellcheck tools.
The red squiggle underline approach unions the Primary and Secondary dictionaries but does not track lang attributes as it is designed to be used while actively entering or editing text. This is done for speed and because when text is being edited, the tags may still be incomplete so no real lang attributes tracking can be used. This is part of CV and not a separate dialog so it must share the keyboard shortcuts set in Preferences. The Spellcheck dialog is designed for use when primary editing/entry of text is done and tags are well formed. It fully tracks lang attributes. And can spellcheck in multiple languages (as many as used) simultaneously. It can update and fix misspelled words in multiple places simultaneously. Again this is a separate dialog that uses its own different dedicated shortcuts. Quote:

There's thread somewhere where Tex2002ans, me and others waxed lyrical on the advantage of a non-modal list based spell checkers. BTW he's not logged on since January, anything known? BR |

So what typical CV changes are you making after double-clicking on a word in the Spellcheck Dialog? Do you manually refresh the spellcheck wordlist? |
