Add hotkey for spellcheck

Suggest a feature.

Please add a hotkey for spell checker. Now I have to look for all errors manually, and if the document is large, it takes a lot of time. That’s why I need a hotkey, on pressing which the first word with an error was found down from the cursor, on pressing the hotkey again the next word was found and so on. Also, it would be desirable to open a menu with a choice of correct words at once, but this can be done optionally.

OS version: Win7 x64
App version: 7.4.1

Hello @ED_Sln

Can you share an app that allows you use spellchecker ‘per click’ for the reference?

Frankly, I think it is easier to have it enabled or disabled than clicking a button to show just one incorrect word. If you want to enable spellchecking you can:

  • click the Spell checking image icon on the status bar;
  • open the File tab of the top toolbar, select the Advanced Settings option, check the Turn on spell checking option box and click the Apply button.

All in all, you can read more information about Spell-checking in document editor here:

Hello.

No, I mean a hotkey to find the first word with an error, similar to pressing F7 in MS Word. For example I open a document, press the hotkey (F7) and it should show the first word with an error, pressing F7 again will show the next word with an error and so on.

I see, thank you for clarification.
We will discuss it internally and I will inform you about the result.
