To Change Spell check behaviour

Post by Flightdale »

Hello,

Why does the spell checker always return to top of page 1 when it is finish ? as it is annoying to be in middle of a large document (like on page 6 of 13), press F7 to start the checker only to have to scroll back down from 1. This did not happens in MS Word 97 (my previous program) as it simply existed to current cursor position.

I have Version 1.6 of Atlantis running on Windows XP Pro SP2 (OEM English) and I like the program alot.

Thanks

Things actually work in a slightly different way. The caret is left at the location where the last misspelt word was reported by the “Tools | Spellcheck” dialog. The next release of Atlantis will work differently. If you do not terminate the spellchecking by clicking the Cancel button in the “Tools | Spellcheck” dialog, the caret wil be moved to the initial location (before you clicked the “Tools | Spellcheck…” menu command, or pressed F7).

Checker Behaviour

Just a update,

The Behaviour I described only happens if ask the program to check header/footer as well as the document. Otherwise it leaves me in the same place as before. Since use only header for file name when printed it is no necessary check this.
