ACADuser Posted August 15, 2023 Author Share Posted August 15, 2023 The spelling tool does not work for me in layout labels. Can you show me an example? I want spelling help on any field that can go into a schedule & any LABEL field. Here is a layout label with no spelling correction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spell check is not available within the DBX but it is at the layout page level when multiple objects are selected. Selecting a single layout box will not trigger the tool. The easy method is just hit Select All at the layout page, then it checks everything including layout labels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACADuser Posted August 15, 2023 Author Share Posted August 15, 2023 Now I wonder why you need 2 layouts to be checked to get the spell checker to work? Obviously I was asleep when that was covered in class. My point is that I want the spelling checked in real time when i can correct it immediately.

MoeGia Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 A big plus one to real time spell checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renerabbitt Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 just as an FYI @ACADuser and Tools:Checks:Spell Checking works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACADuser Posted August 17, 2023 Author Share Posted August 17, 2023 Thanks for that tip Rene, but global spell check is way overkill for me. So many slang terms & abbreviations make it tedious. I suppose after using the Learn word feature that would calm down. I'll keep pushing for a "real time spelling check" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
