Sigil 0.5.3 - spellchecker missing?

Naloomi · 08-08-2012, 05:09 PM

I have downloaded Sigil 0.5.3. And I have been using it to edit some of my epubs. In code view, the misspelled words are underlined in red.

However, per the help file there should be a drop down box beneath the 'find and replace' function.

On mine, I do not have the this option. My only options are:
Normal
Case Sensitive
Regex
Regex Dotall

Am I missing something? Help?

Or is there another easy way to simply 'spell check' the epubs? Thank you.

What you see is what is there. The help file is probably based on the upcoming 0.6 version.
The red lines under the words is the spell check. You can change them by right clicking or add them to your custom list.

Okay. Thought it was something that got lost in an update.

If you have the beta (5.902) it is there. I believe the beta has been pulled, so you are back at the Sigil normal

folk see.
