Spell Check

Is there any way to spell checking the messages in automatic detection??

I mean, I have WLMail in Spanish, but English is installed to and available,
I think I can not do is exchange the spelling language every time I write an
English message or a Spanish message (quite often both of them), so there
should be something like in word, that when you're writing it detect itself
what language you are writing, but I haven't found in WLMail ver 12.0.1606.

thanks / Corsair

Re: Spell Check

No, there is no automatic detection of language. I do it by having "Check
spelling in current input language" and "Check my spelling as I type"
selected. Then, when I need to write in German or Danish, I use a keyboard
shortcut to change the keyboard layout and the spell check picks up the
keyboard language. I have "Always check spelling before sending" deselected
because there can only be one language per message.

Re: Spell Check

thanks very much, but if I change the input language in my Keyboard, that
it's Spaniard I think I won't be able to write in English or at least there
are a lot of keys with different meaning.

will see if in the next version this feature is installed.

Re: Spell Check

Hi Noel,

you say "Check my spelling as I type", where is that?

I could not see in WLMail (Tools - Spelling - ) and my version is 12.0.1606.

Re: Spell Check

It's the third setting on the Spelling tab.

If you regularly use two languages, switching keyboards quickly becomes
second nature. The differences between the Spanish and (UK) English ones are
not large (see screenshot) and you can always mark the keys with the other
language's characters.

I don't expect automatic detection of language to be incorporated in the
application.

RE: Spell Check

An alternative would be a fast, easy way to change spell language. Even
better if it can be done from within the message. For me, this may be better
than automatic detection.
The only way I know to change the language is from Tools -> Options ->
Spelling, and it is not available from the message composing window. Is there
any other way that I don't know?

Regards.
