Do you have any problems with Spell Catcher X?
I have used it (and its predecessors) for many years in all sorts of
programmes. It has caused a lot of grief in Revolution. The glossary
function seems to toss in extra invisible characters that cause problems in
scripts (very hard to track down). I turned that off first.
I forget what the problem was with the spell checking, but I also turned it
off. I think it didn't paste the changes in correctly on a batch check.
It is a real concern for me since I find it much harder to work without it.
In fact, it is the biggest negative about Revolution now. I did report it
to Casady & Greene months ago.
Have you had any bad experiences?
Bruce,
I haven't had any bad experiences with Spell Catcher X. Granted I haven't really used it other than to check text selections in fields. I haven't used it in the script editor. As far as invisible characters in the script editor, I have seen this before in earlier versions of the script editor and those occurrences were unrelated to spell Checker X.
I tend to work with fields separately and not to process them as batches so I can't comment on Spell Checker X's performance in that regard.
Quit a while ago I mentioned that I thought integrated spell check would be a very useful addition to rev. I still think so. Unfortunately the folks at Run Rev really have their hands full at the moment and that type of addition would represent a major commitment of both time and resources. Maybe someday ... :-)
Regards,
Steve
