Description Harold Aylworth 2020-11-01 21:50:32 UTC
Description:
I wrote a document in Write and Spell check did not find any miss spelled words in the document either as I typed or manually checked for poor spelling. I did catch miss-spelled word by checking some words manually using an online dictionary but Write did not find any miss-spellings.



Steps to Reproduce:
1.Write a document and miss spell words and check
2.
3.

Actual Results:
spell check will not hightlight the miss spelled word

Expected Results:
nothing


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
highlighted the miss spelled word and suggest correct spellings or correct word.
