Description
How to setup and use the Spell Checking features in Imprudence 1.4.0. Beta 1

Information
A typing error is easily made. That is where the Spell Checking features of Imprudence come in their own to make your live a little bit easier.

Activation
To enable the Spell Checking feature you need to go to the Edit menu and select Preferences (or press ). The settings for Spell checking have been moved from the Advanced-tab to the Chat-tab in Imprudence 1.4.0 Beta 1.



Click on the Chat-tab and select "Enable Spell Checking". And click on the Apply-button to make the change permanent.

Text correction
Misspelled words will be marked with a red line.



By right clicking on the red underlined word a context menu will appear with a selection of words. You can select the correct word from that list. If the correct spelling is not in the given list and you know for sure that the spelling is correct, you can also use "Add Word" to add it to the list. This way the next time that word will not be marked as spelled wrongly.

Loading more dictionaries
As standard a English dictionary is shipped with Imprudence. But you can load multiple dictionaries from the Imprudence website. You do this by clicking on the "Download more..."-button in the Spell Checking preferences on the Chat-tab.

A new window will open where you can select one dictionary at a time. Once you selected the dictionary you need to download it. This will take some time depending on your connection speed.



In the spell checking preferences you install the custom dictionary to your system. [NEEDS MORE INFO] Once you installed the dictionary you can select it as "Current language". The Spell checking feature will then use that dictionary to check your typed text.
