Spell check problems
Hello,
The spell check feature in Storyline isn't working correctly. When a word is misspelled sometimes the software doesn't catch it, or when it does and underlines it in red I will right click and there either won't be a replacement or if I select the replacement it doesn't fix it.
Also, every time I use contractions it tells me they are misspelled (e.g., "doesn't" will show incorrect and it often will just show "doesn't" when I right click but then either not fix it or it replaces it so this shows up: doesn't't).
I'm at a loss as to how to fix this and it's making editing tricky.

Hello Lauren!
Do you have any updates on this fix?
Hi
« I’m experiencing the same problem as Mary Gray; a spellcheck red line stays visible when the containing textarea is hidden… Check out those print screen. »
I am seeing this issue in storyline 3. Sometimes it changes the word when I highlight the entire word
Is there a plan to fix this problem. It's persisted for quite a while. I've transitioned to Articulate 360, and the issue is still the same. Contractions work in captioning, but not in notes.
Hi Joyce,
This issue is still open as we continue tracking user impact.
I wanted to share some information on how we define bugs and how we tackle them when they occur.
Do you know what version of Storyline you're using?
You can check by going to:
Help > About Articulate Storyline
We are currently on Build 3.41.22450.0 of Storyline 360. You can read all of the details here.I just tested a sample and did not get the errors reported above. What are your dictionary settings?
Looks like my settings match yours. Since that update was just released today, perhaps it fixed the issue. I'll have to wait and see whether the problem comes back. :)
Yeah, this is a very annoying issue. It's nice that Articulate lets you know that your word is misspelled but it should let you click on the correct spelling.
And contractions continue to show as misspelled words in the notes.
Hi, everyone.
I just wanted to share that we are no longer seeing the bug reported where contractions are underlined as spelled incorrectly in Notes using the latest build of Storyline (3.61.27106.0).
If you're using the latest version and you're still experiencing this issue, please reach out to our support team through a case.I still have both problems in Storyline 360 (v3.63.2768.0). And while an update appeared a couple of days ago, I've been told the update is breaking some of our courses.
Hi, Richard.
If you're still experiencing the bug where contractions are underlined as misspelled in Notes when using version 3.63.2768.0, can you share a sample .story file so we can investigate?
I tried it on my end, but I can't reproduce it. You're welcome to submit the file privately through a support case.
Unfortunately, I can't. Proprietary information.
Sincerely,
Richard Slate
