I am just wondering how often Articulate's spell-check dictionary is updated. I am shocked that the word transgender comes up as a spelling mistake. While I can add this to my own dictionary, I was wondering how often the dictionary is updated to include current vocabulary.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention! At Articulate we place inclusion as one of our highest priorities, so I reached out to Engineering to understand more on how this occurred. I found out that our spell-check is based on a 3rd party integration and hasn’t been updated in a bit. Engineering is looking into other integrations as we continue to improve Storyline 360, and you’ll see any updates like this reflected in our Release Notes. In the meantime, here is a way to add a word to the dictionary. If there’s anything else we can help you with, please come visit us again in E-Learning Heroes or reach out to our team through a support case!
Thank you again for drawing that to our attention!
