Hello - I've noticed this across multiple projects, but spellcheck does not appear to be functioning in Storyline 360. I double-checked that my spelling options are turned on, but I don't see the red line under misspelled words and have to run spellcheck manually. Is anyone else having this challenge?
I have a similar but backward question. I do NOT want misspelled words to be underlined in red when users type something into an input box. I followed the directions to checkmark "Hide spelling errors" but I'm still getting the red line under misspelled words.
Thanks for reaching out and sharing what you are experiencing in your project file.
You mention that you're seeing this with an input box and I'm curious if that is specifically a Text Entry field?
We have an open issue that we are tracking specific to this issue and I'd be happy to link this conversation as we continue to investigate. We do not have a defined workaround at this time.
I have the same problem with the unwanted underline according spelling. Unfortantly this is visible in my slide layer from base laters, while all objects are hidden. Is there a way to solve this ?
I ask because Storyline 360 Update 45 holds a fix for when spell-check lines on one layer were visible on other layers when they should've been hidden.
I have the opposite problem, where spellcheck regularly underlines words that are spelled correctly. This mostly happens in Notes, after I've done some kind of edit.
There were two bugs reported in this discussion. The bug where the red line for the spelling error in a Text Entry box on the base layer is showing on the slide layer was fixed in Storyline 360 (Build 3.45.23393.0). The second bug is that text entry fields aren't included with the Hide Spelling Errors setting, and that hasn't been fixed yet.

Hi there Leigh!
The 'Hide spelling errors' option may be enabled. Here's how to fix it:
Let me know if that helps!

Yes, it is a Text Entry field. Thanks!

Hi Nicole!
Which version of Storyline are you using?
I ask because Storyline 360 Update 45 holds a fix for when spell-check lines on one layer were visible on other layers when they should've been hidden.
To find the update you're on, click the Help tab and then About Storyline. If it's an earlier version, here's how to update Storyline to the latest one.
If it's not working right on your side on this update, we'd love to explore further!

Hello Ellen!
Are you finding any commonalities between the words that are underlined even when spelled correctly?
Not that I've noticed, except that it seems to happen after I've made an
edit.
I'm attaching a few examples.
Thank you for your help..
