How to run a spell check in the Description screen
Target audience:
Users editing content in the Description screen who want to check spelling in one or multiple descriptions.
Core purpose:
To guide users through running a spell check in the active Description screen or across multiple Description screens.
Spell check in the active Description screen
Use this method to check spelling in a single Description screen.
To start:
- Place your cursor in the Description screen.
- Go to the Tools tab and select Spelling.
Or press F7 to open it directly.
When the spell check starts:
- Words not found in the user dictionary will trigger suggestions.
- You can choose from the following options:
- Ignore Once: Skip the word this time.
- Ignore All: Skip all instances of the word.
- Add to Dictionary: Save the word to your personal dictionary.
- Change: Replace the current word with a suggested one.
- Change All: Replace all instances of the word.
- Cancel: Stop the spell check.
Spell check across multiple Description screens
Use this method to check spelling in a topic and its subtopics.
To start:
- In the Topics screen, select the topic whose subtopics you want to check.
- Go to the Tools tab and select Spelling in Subtopics.
Or press Ctrl + Shift + F7 to open it directly.
What happens next:
- The spell check will move through each Description screen one by one.
- The same options (Ignore, Change, Add to Dictionary, etc.) are available as in the single-screen spell check.
Important notes
- The spell check uses your user dictionary, so adding words will prevent future alerts for those terms.
- You can cancel the spell check at any time.
- Spelling in Subtopics is ideal for reviewing large sets of content efficiently.
