Spell check problems

That's great Katie about the contractions but what about the second half of the spell check issue. When in Notes, the system recognizes the typo, offers the correct spelling, but when selecting, it does NOT replace it with the selected correct spelling. You literally have to manually update, and then the red line goes away. This seems counter productive. Any news on that front?

Thanks!

Hi C!

Thanks for reaching out and letting us know that you are running into an issue with spell check on your Notes.

I took a look and I am unable to replicate:

What version of Storyline 360 are you using? We are currently on Build 3.26.18601.0.

I'm having this issue again. For a while, contractions seemed to work. The problem was fixed in closed captioning, but it persists in Notes. words like "you'll" and "it's" consistently come up as being spelling errors. I'm using SL3 Update 9: 3.9.21069.0

He is my 2 cents, when I hold down my right button on my mouse for a long time, may up to 10 seconds it corrects most of my miss spells. Doesn't always work, I have learned to just work around. Not a good speller anyway. The other thing I do is to publish in word, find the corrections and put them in. I then use the word doc for my script for our voice talent. o the publication in word is not wasted time. Word will give me a quicker voice to double check also. 

Came here for the same issue. I did notice that if you double-click the red underlined word to highlight it, then right-click and select the correct spelling, it seems to fix the misspelled word. I hope this helps some of you!

Hi Alexandra!

We've seen other reports of spell check issues like this, but this has been a tough one to nail down. Similar to what you experienced, other folks reported that the spell check tool doesn't recognize contractions, and the word suggestion will be incorrect. 

Do you notice that the red underline will disappear if you click outside the text box? We've seen that has been a good workaround for most people. 

Our team has eyes on this issue, and I'll be sure to add your experience to our report. If anything changes, we'll let you know!

Great news, Alexandra - and those following along!

We fixed the issue you reported where the spell check tool would not recognize contractions and return wrong spelling suggestions.

Here's how you can update Storyline 360 to see all the latest features and fixes. If this problem resurfaces, please record a Peek 360 screencast for me, and I'll be happy to help!

Hello!

I'm experiencing the same thing....see the attachment...I have a small box for a learner to type in something, when they click submit, the next layer displays the correct wording/spelling, etc....however the RED LINE that indicates error still displays.  

I've added by .story screen images so you can see my setup
