Flare 11 Spelling

[pdambrosio]

Hi!

I prefer to see the spelling errors inside of the document. Yet when I work in Flare 11, I have to click View in File for each error.
Am I missing something, or does anyone have a workaround so that I can see the spelling errors highlighted within the document while spell checking and without a manual operation for each error.

Thanks,
Pat

Bizarre. Hadn't noticed that until you mentioned it. If you go to Tools, you should see "Spell Check While Typing" enabled. That's the default option. However, it doesn't always seem to work. If I open a topic, I don't see the spell check warnings on words until I put the cursor in the writing area of the topic. If I deliberately misspell a word, it doesn't immediately highlight it. So it appears to be a bug, but an inconsistent bug. I suggest reporting it as a bug to MadCap Support, unless someone else responds with a solution.

EDIT: The word did eventually get the squiggly lines, but long after I had moved past it. Flare v11 does seem to be slower than previous versions, at least with regards to the WYSIWYG editor, so it's possible it's tied to that and not all users experience that lag.
