How can I spellcheck documentation in Blueworks Live?

How To


Summary

The Blueworks Live Rich-Text Editor (RTE) does not have built-in spellchecker functionality.

However, spellchecking is built into most modern browsers - including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. With Microsoft Internet Explorer, it depends on which release you are using: Internet Explorer 11, 10 and Edge have spellchecking built-in; for IE8 and IE9 there are 3rd party add-ins you can find for spellchecking.

Steps

Here are instructions that you might find helpful for enabling spellchecking in different browsers:
Turn CHROME spell check on and off
    1 Go to Settings.
    2 Click Advanced. Languages.
    3 To the right of “Spell check,” turn it on or off.
Turn EDGE spell check on and off
    1 In the upper-right, click the three horizontal dots, and then choose Settings from the drop-down menu.
    2 On the Settings screen, click on Languages.
    3 Under the “Check spelling” section, turn on Enable spellcheck for the languages that you want Microsoft Edge to check spelling while you're typing
Turn FIREFOX spell check on and off
    1 You can enable or disable spell checking globally: Options/Preferences -> General: Language and Appearance: "Check your spelling as you type"
