Hello,
I have searched for a quite some time for a solution to my problem (forums and googling), to no avail.
I use Calibre on PC Win7 x64 (both 32-bit and x64) to edit epub formatted books.
Some of them have multitude of mistyped errors (more than 100s per book), so I use Calibre editor and on top of the editor I do open Spell Checking window. I do know Calibre editor by itself has a spell checking feature build in, but this is for single contextual occurrences. With multiple same errors, it is much faster to correct repetitive errors in batches. But very often I still do want to check the context of a word individually, and here is my problem: every time I want to access background editor window I am forced to close spell checker window. There is no minimize option, only help ? or close X options. So after checking context and getting back to spell checking I do have to every time re-open and reload spell checking dictionary. Is there any way to keep spell checking window still open while accessing the editor, and getting back to spell checker without the need to forcefully close it? Is there any settings option or command to accomplish this? Or if currently it is impossible, maybe it could be implemented in the future versions of Calibre, if possible?
If someone knows a solution, please let me know.
Thanks.
