Correct All in Spelling

This is especially useful when you are translating a document from British English to US English, for example. Let’s suppose you have a document in UK English and let’s suppose also you are translating it into US English. First thing you apply US English to the whole text. You start the spell-check engine. The engine highlights the first “behaviour” and suggests “behavior” instead. That’s OK so far, but you know there’s a lot of “behaviours”, and you will be asked to change them one by one. That’s where a Correct All would kick in, if it were around. You click on it, and all occurrences of “behaviour(s)” instantly turn into “behavior(s)”.

Thanks, Henry.

Henry,

You are correct. That would be a very nice thing to be able to do. Implementing it is very high on our official "to-do" list.

Didn’t I hit the nail on the very top of the upper end of the head!
