Spell Check

[Darren Hughes]

Is there a spell check option in the window where we type our posts on the forum that I'm just too blind to see? I've done a quick search on it and I haven't seen anyone else asking about it. I use Firefox.

 

Cheers,

Darren.

Yeah, that option isn't on my machine. Weird huh. Here's what I have.

Go to add ons in FF or Thunderbirds (I think) and chose the dictionary you require it does not load automatically.

My browser FF 3.04 also produces screen the same as yours.

This may help.

How do you do the screen grab?.

Firefox just works, including spellcheck. When you're typing, you should see a red underline at any misspelled word. I've never had to load anything extra, on Windows or Linux. Spellcheck works out of the box.

Yeah, I;ve been using that but sometimes it works, and sometimes not. I guess I'll have to trust it for now if I'm gonna stick with firefox!! Screen capture is...alt + print screen(prt sc).

 

Cheers guys.

On the last 2 updates for FF I have had to load spell check.

Also right click in box and you should get a drop down showing check spelling should have a tick,

underneath languages will show what dictionary you have loaded.

It worked for me being dyslexic a must.

I tried to ALT + Print Screen no go.

Ok, sorry, in my rush to reply on the way out I forgot about the rest of it! It's ALT+PRT SC. Then go into Microsoft paint or other graphic program, go up to "edit" at the top, and select "paste" and it should paste your image onto the worksheet. From there you can edit it and save it as whatever format you like.

[Darren Hughes]

Or on some computers and laptops it will be FN + PRT SC, then paste the image

If you press PrtScn it takes a snapshot of the whole screen and if you hold alt then press PrtScn it takes a snapshot of the active window.

 

This works on any windows computer.
