Spell check functionality

Kahua has spell check functionality in both the desktop host and the web host. Spelling errors will appear underlined with a squiggly red line. To review spelling suggestions, right-click on the underlined word or phrase.

There is a slight variation in the functionality between the desktop host and the web host, consistent with the variations present between Microsoft desktop applications and web browsers:

• In the desktop host, a space or punctuation mark must be entered for the spelling to be checked.

• In the web host, a space is not required. Spelling will be checked as you type.

In both hosts, text that is copied and pasted is automatically checked when it is pasted into a field.
