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.

PowerPoint doesn't have to be installed on your computer. It's side-loaded by Storyline.
I think we will agree to disagree, PowerPoint is not running on my machine or PowerPoint DDLs. Odd that they can side load PPT to run Storyline but to be able to import a PPT file you must have PPT installed
Apples and oranges. Rather than argue about this, can we agree that Articulate need to improve the interface?
Interesting that you didn't respond. C'mon, be a real hero and help us out.
I don't have an issue with the UI. In places I would love to see some change to reduce the number of click to achieve something. . I would agree notes needs some works and I suffer with the Spellchecker issue all the time. We have had huge workflow improvements over the last few years and I am sure they will continue.
"We?" So you do work for Articulate?
Five year is a long time to wait for a fix for an issue this annoying. It should be a top priority.'We' as in everyone who use Storyline 360. In terms of fixes I am sure the community managers can drop a note on how fixes and bugs are handled and prioritised. I don't work for Articulate, I am just active in their community.
Being fairly new to Articulate, I couldn't speak to the "huge" workflow improvements. But I can say, that when a bug affects me each and every day and it is not a priority for the service provider, I usually move on.
Unfortunately, Articulate seems to be the only caterer in town. I'm guessing there's not enough market for Adobe to improve the Captivate GUI, but watch out if they do. The integration possibilities boggle the mind.
