Check spelling

Automatic correction

When defining the text for activities, flow lines, free text, storyboard steps, etc, incorrect words will be automatically highlighted with a red underline (unless you have previously disabled this option). To correct a highlighted mistake, right-click the underlined word and choose the correct spelling. Note that by default, some words are automatically corrected as you type.

Other options available from the right-click menu:

Ignore will ignore the spelling in that instance only.

Ignore All will ignore the spelling in all instances, i.e. if the spelling appears in other objects then it will not be highlighted as a mistake.

Add will add the word to your dictionary as a valid spelling.

Change All will change all instances of the spelling in the same text to a selected spelling.

Auto Correct will automatically correct this and all future spellings with a selected spelling.

Spelling will open the Spell Checker.
