RavBoy 189 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Anyway to fix EN-Windows always showing a spelling error when placing a Unit of Measurement Abbreviation immediately after, so no space, after the numeric value: EXAMPLE 100kg triggers red squiggly line/spelling error so must use a space, and enter it as 100 kg 120km etc... 237lbs .... Sort of pointless adding each to the EN dictionary as the numeric value can be anything. So anybody know how to Fix or tell EN to avoid these??? cheers Link to comment

Level 5* gazumped 12,075 Posted May 7, 2020 Level 5* Share Posted May 7, 2020 Is there not an 'add to dictionary' option if you right-click? (Depends on how many variations of kg weights you use, I guess...) Link to comment
Level 5 Dave-in-Decatur 4,006 Posted May 7, 2020 Level 5 Share Posted May 7, 2020 FWIW, the combination of number+text creates a spelling error in a number of programs, including my browser in this forum. I grudgingly put up with it. In Evernote I might turn spell check off while adding a lot of such figures, to avoid the annoyance. Link to comment

Unfortunately the squiggles reappear when you turn spell check back on, though only when you access the line. Which is another issue of sorts for me with spellcheck, misspelled words are displayed as you type them but do not display when viewing the note if you don't fix them whilst typing. I guess we lost that back when with F7 going away. But I digress. Link to comment
