Spelling Dialog

• Dec 15, 2021

If the spell checker finds a misspelled word, it automatically invokes the Spelling dialog.

The Spelling dialog is provided in two layout styles:

• The Outlook-style Spelling dialog

Displays a misspelled word and proposed corrections.

• The Word-style Spelling dialog

Displays a sentence with a highlighted misspelled word and proposed corrections. In addition to error corrections, an end-user can make other changes in the sentence.

Use the spell checker’s SpellingFormType property to specify the dialog style to be shown.

In Check As You Type checking mode, an end-user can invoke the Spelling dialog by right-clicking any misspelled word (which is highlighted with a line) and clicking Spelling in the opened context menu. To programmatically invoke a specific Spelling dialog, call the dxShowOutlookSpellingDialog or dxShowWordSpellingDialog function.
