Dictionary bug 18.1.20

Post by wjstarck » Thu Jun 14, 2018 7:16 am

There is a bug with the dictionary in 18.1.20

If there are multiple items in a textarea control that are not in the dictionary, I am able to add the one item but the 'Add to dictionary' context menu will not show in the control any more after that. I noticed this when editing a note in the procedure info window for a completed procedure.

Thanks
Cheers,

Hmmm, I haven't been able to get this to happen for me. If none of my co-workers who read this forum are able to reproduce this, can you call our support and show them the steps involved with the problem?

It only stops showing up for me when I don't right click on a misspelled word.
The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.

Ah, I see.

I must have been clicking in the white space next to the second word.

FYI though, after I add something to the dictionary the squiggly red line is not disappearing immediately like it used to. In other words, I have to close the window for the squiggly line to go away. It seems that before it would disappear right after the word was added to the dictionary?

The spell check runs on a timer, so the squiggly red line should go away after 0.5 seconds.
