Checking Spelling
You can check the spelling in your drawing using several dictionaries avail-
able in different languages. AutoSketch checks the spelling of the selection
set or, if no selection set is defined, the entire drawing. AutoSketch also
allows you to check spelling in:
■
Dimension format strings (text embedded in dimension labels)
■
Database field values (including symbol data fields in the Symbol
Explorer)
■
Edit controls
■
Dialog boxes
■
Text Editor
During a spell check, AutoSketch matches the words in the drawing to the
words in the current main dictionary. You can create a custom dictionary
that contains a list of spelling exceptions you have identified, including
proper names. You can switch between the main and custom dictionaries.
To check spelling
1 (optional) Define a selection set.
2 On the Tools menu, click Spelling, or click the Spelling button on the
Standard toolbar, or press F7.
3 If AutoSketch finds no misspellings, it displays a message saying “Spell
Check is Complete.” Click OK.
OR
If AutoSketch finds a misspelled word, the Check Spelling dialog box
appears with a list of possible corrections in the Suggestions window.
