The tab 'Spelling' in the dialog
'Options' allows to set spelling and
language options for TeXnicCenter. See
Advanced configuration for more
information and settings about languages and spelling.
The meaning of the controls are:
- 'Language'
- This drop down list shows all languages of the installed dictionaries.
The language setting only affects the spell checking functionality of
TeXnicCenter. It does not affect the language of the TeXnicCenter user
interface. Changing the language does require a restart of TeXnicCenter to
became effective.
- 'Dialect'
- This drop down list shows all dialects available for the selected
language. The dialect setting only affects the spell checking
functionality of TeXnicCenter. It does not affect the language of the
TeXnicCenter user interface. Changing the dialect does require a restart
of TeXnicCenter to become effective.
- 'Locale'
- This drop down list shows the locale setting for the TeXnicCenter
application. Locale information is used to format system messages and
some internal text manipulation. Changing the locale setting does not
change the language of the TeXnicCenter user interface. If the selected
locale is not installed, the default system locale will be used.
- 'Check spelling while typing'
- When selected, TeXnicCenter performs spell checking during data input.
Words not found in the spell checker dictionary are highlighted.
- 'Suggest from main dictionary only'
- When selected, TeXnicCenter suggests only words from the main
dictionary. Words from the personal dictionary will not be included
in the suggestion list.
- 'Ignore comments'
- When selected, TeXnicCenter does not spell check comments.
- 'Ignore LaTeX tags'
- When selected, TeXnicCenter does not spell check LaTeX tags.
This setting does not affect spell checking LaTeX command argum
ents. For example, the argument of the LaTeX command
\caption{This is a caption}, "This is a caption", is always spell
checked. This option only determines whether "\caption" is spell checked.
- 'Ignore words with numbers'
- When selected, TeXnicCenter does not spell check words containing
numbers.
- 'Ignore UPPERCASE words'
- When selected, TeXnicCenter does not spell check words
in uppercase letters.
- 'Personal Dictionary'
- Contains path to and name of the file containing the personal
dictionary. The personal dictionary contains words not found in the
main dictionary. It is loaded once during application startup and
written once during application shutdown. Clearing the personal
dictionary text field disables the personal dictionary. Changes
to personal dictionary control do not cause the personal
dictionary to be reloaded.
