Check As You Type Mode
In Check As You Type checking mode, the spell checker automatically checks a text-editing control’s contents when this control gains focus. To enable this mode, set the spell checker’s CheckAsYouTypeOptions.Active property to True.
To inform an end-user about errors, the spell checker underlines misspelled words. If the spell checker’s CheckAsYouTypeOptions.UnderlineStyle property is set to usAuto, misspellings are highlighted with straight lines in single-line text-editing controls. Wavy lines are used to mark errors in multi-line text-editing controls.
Spelling corrections are performed using a built-in context menu.
Note
As with AutoCorrect, the Check As You Type mode is only available for DevExpress text-editing controls. In the ExpressRichEdit Control, the Check As You Type mode is in effect even if this control is not focused.
