Spell Check and Line Breaks

Hello,
When creating a story/text box in ID, I often have lines with soft line breaks (shift-return).
When I running spell-check, it sees the new, broken line as a new sentence.
Example,
"This is my sentence and then
if I break it like this."
Spell check will return "if" as an error which needs to be capitalized.
Is there a way to turn off this aspect of spell check?
Or some other way to avoid this issue?
Thank you in advance.

Nevermind. I think I figured out.

  • Why would white space and line breaks in sql query increase runtime

    Using 11.2.0.3.0 on unix sprac server, 8 cpus 32 cores 12TB storage. We have 16 batch servers doing inserts and ~100 users doing mostly queries.
    We have a wierd issue,  we have a long query that takes 30 seconds to run 1st time then 10-20 secs every other time. Based on knowledge of DB we expected it to take a lot less.  Then a developer reformatted it by taking removing extra white space and line breaks.  all of sudden query takes 6 secs first time and 0.8 every other time.  we tripled checked to ensure they are identical and that only difference is white space and line breaks.  We tried it with SQLDeveloper, TOAD, SQLPLUS, from out desktops, appserver. we could reproduce it every time, with white space 10-20 secs without it 0.8 secs.  Query is 200 lines long with white space 30 without it.
    Why would having white space make such a dramatic difference?  because the query is longer eventhough its identical?  We checked parsing times, etc, no difference.  Is there some network setting, oracle parameter, sqlnet setting?  We spent hours looking on google and found nother

    Do you have some sort of horrific network connection between the client and the database such that it would take 8.5 seconds to transmit a few kb of SQL to the server?  That seems most unlikely.
    How are you determining the query plan?  Are you absolutely sure that both SQL statements have the same plan_hash_value when they are actually executed (not just when you generate a query plan without executing it)?  What are the differences in wait events when you execute the two?
    The sql_id will change when you add or remove whitespace.  There are various methods of modifying query plans that are tied to a sql_id.  My wager would be that you have a profile/ outline/ etc. that is not there for the reformatted one which is causing a query plan difference.  My next guess is that you have an accepted plan for the old statement, you haven't set up a process to let the plan evolve, and the reformatted statement starts with the plan that the old statement would get if you allowed the plan to evolve.

  • Hi, can someone please tell me why the spell check in pages doesn't work. I went to preferences and enabled this auto spell checker and have set the language to british english. But still it doesn't work while it works perfectly in TextEdit.

    Inspector > Text > More > Language
    Only applies to selected text, like making it a particular font.
    It is not a setting that sticks. If you continue to paste in text from elsewhere particularly the Internet it will have a different or None language set to it. You need to select it and make it B.E.

  • Pages spell check and Mac dictionary

    I find it annoying that Pages' spell-check is not synchronized with Mac Dictionary/Thesaurus. There are words I type that are shown as misspelled, but exist in the Dictionary program. Why not sync the two? It's annoying how many legitimate words Pages thinks are misspelled.
    b

    bk,
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    I completely agree. OS X's dictionary and thesaurus are excellent, and it would be nice to have them integrated into Pages spell-check and learned words functions.
    Please leave feedback for the Pages team.

  • Spell check and word suggestion doesn't work Droid 4

    My wife and I both have Motorola Droid 4s. I have had mine for almost a year, and she has had hers just a week. After I factory reset mine to fix a spell check problem, I noticed that the spell check still doesn't automatically fix errors, and there is no word suggestion. Her's is doing the same thing. When I looked for this issue online, I found numerous other Motorola Droid 4 owners having the same problem.
    Since we text a LOT, this is certainly a major inconvenience. We would like to know if there is a fix for this issue, is it OS version and phone specific, and when an update/fix can be expected.
    Thank you for your time!

    The settings you gave me are the same as I and my wife have set except for the keyboard and input methods. For us, android is checked but disabled (gray), moto chinese input is checked, and swype is checked but disabled and gray. Same as it was when spell check and suggestions didn't work. Now ours is working but what is really interesting is that we never changed anything since it wasn't working. We just woke up the day after posting this and it was working. Hmm. I left the moto chinese checked because why tempt fate?
    Thank you for your reply and information.  That fact is, my spell check worked for a year and then suddenly it did not. My wife's didn't even out of the box, then the day after I post, ours works perfect. Coincidence? Who cares. =)

  • Onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"

    How do I increase the onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"? I just tried to spell check a document and the font size was so small I can't see what it says. Also, when you click on 'font' to change it, I wish the list of fonts was larger so I could see it clearer. I have pretty good vision so it's not that, it's just the size of the font....it must be at least 6! Thanks for your help.

    Hi, Diane. I don't know what sort of display you're using, but it sounds like you have a flat LCD display. At any resolution lower than its maximum, a flat-screen LCD display is always blurry, and the lower the resolution, the blurrier it is. This is because unlike a CRT display, an LCD has a fixed number of physical pixels in it that can't be changed. If you instruct it to "pretend" it has a smaller number of larger pixels by setting it for a lower resolution, each of the "pretend" pixels has to be made up of several real pixels instead of just one, and no pixel can be (for example) half white and half blue: a pixel is an indivisible unit that is always all one color. So the only way the hardware can use several pixels to represent one larger one is to gradate the colors of those pixels as best it can to approximate the intended image, and that inevitably spreads the gradation out — which is exactly what blurring is. This is just an inbuilt property of LCD displays, not a defect that needs to be (or can be) fixed. The solution is to buy a display that works well for you at its highest resolution — which will probably mean a lower-resolution display than you have now.

  • Where is spell check and insert signature

    ANGRY that when I access my company e-mail through Outlook Web Access, there is no ability to spell check and no way to insert signature.
    So....do I have to check my e-mail on a PC to get these features...say it is not so.

    Right click (if you have a 2 button mouse) or control-click in the window of safari. a menu will pop up.
    You will see an option for spelling. You will go down to it and when you do you can open up the spelling window itself (first option), have it check the spelling in the text entry window (second option), or have it check it as you type (3rd option).
    he signature is a different story. it will be an option in your companies web mail program. Look for settings there. Web mail programs have settings just as regular desktop mail does.
    If that fails and there is no signature option then a solution would be to use stickies or a text editor to type up a signature then use copy and paste to put it in the end of your email (copy is command-c, paste command-v).

  • How to create a text area with spell check and other functions similar to word?

    I want to allow users the ability to copy and paste their content  on to the site.  The problem is giving them the option to use spell check and other word like features to my site.  My goal is to develop some thing  similar to how we post our question in this forums.  

    Some old and some new.

    You realize you'll need to use server-side scripts and a database for this.  Instead of re-inventing the wheel, you might just want to install WordPress, Drupal or Joomla on your site.

  • Spell Check and Ellipsis

    I'm writing out a story on Dreamweaver, and I am frequently writing dialogue with ellipses (those triple periods indicating a pause) mid-sentence. I've been taught by multiple sources on grammar that an ellipsis at the end of the sentence is followed by a space, whereas one in the middle of the sentence is not. However, Dreamweaver's spell check seems to have issue with ellipses that have no spaces between them and the words before and after them.
    It almost seems to disregard the ellipsis entirely and mistakenly see the two words it's written between as one jumbled word. I have to hit ignore every time it brings an instance up while checking my spelling. Does anyone know what causes this in Dreamweaver's spell check, and is there any way to work around it so I don't have to keep telling it to ignore every instance?

    Ben has your solution.
    In order to type an ellipsis on my Mac, I just hold down the [option] button and press ";" and I get an ellipsis. But not on a website. In many cases, the character that comes up on some browsers is a black diamond (actually the color is whatever you are using in your style sheet for the font color) with a question mark in it.
    This is to say, don't use an ellipsis character. Use the HTML code for the character, which will be rendered properly in all browsers. The code for an ellipsis is &hellip; or &#8230; which must be entered in your Code View.
    Now, what you could do is type an ellipsis character and do Dreamweaver's Find and Replace to correctly replace the character with the code. Make sure that Find is searching for Source Code.
    I don't use spell check in Dreamweaver. I keep a TextEdit or Notepad application open for words I'm not sure about and check spelling outside of the application. Dreamweaver CS3 did not have spell check and so I have retained that workflow for my documents.

  • Writing in pages in Afrikaans. Spellcheck keep on correcting to dutch. Switched off spell check and checkeed keyaboard settings. Where do I get languages other than what Apple offer and where is the dictionary, Library, spelling files.

    Writing in pages in Afrikaans. Spellcheck keep on correcting to dutch. Switched off spell check and also looked in System preferences - keyboard. this stops the "Auto-correct" but does not help me with Afrikaans or other language spell check.  Where do I get languages other than what Apple offer and where is the dictionary, Library, spelling files.

    You are basically limited to what Apple deigns to offer.
    Try LibreOffice [free] which has a huge selection of languages.

  • RH7 - Spell Checker and Smart Index Wizard looking in all folders?

    Hi all,
    RE: RH7 - Spell Checker and the Smart Index Wizard looking in all folders instead of just TOC topics?
    While running the Spell Checker and the Smart Index Wizard I am getting the impression they are looking in *all* the folders under the Project Files folder, and not just the topics I have chosen to insert into my TOC. Is this true? If so, is it possible to set RH so that it only looks in TOC topics?
    TIA
    - avraham

    Hi Peter -
    Thanks for your reply. Yes, the pop-up topics are in the same
    folders as the other topics and I am choosing "Any Status" (right
    now all of the topics in the project are the same status anyway).
    What's even stranger is that after I posted my original
    message, I found that it picked up about five of my 100 or so
    pop-up topics, yet ignored the rest. I cannot find ANYTHING about
    these included topics that differs from the ignored topics.
    Bizarre.
    Since I need to move forward ASAP, I am now going through
    each pop-up topic individually and using the Smart Index option on
    the Topic Properties Index tab. It works just fine; is just
    time-consuming, but actually may end up saving me time on the Index
    in the long-run, since I can define which keywords Robo adds to
    each topic on the front-end (not have to prune out worthless
    entries later).
    My guess is that this issue may have to do with the
    conversion of the files from RH 5 to RH 6. It shouldn't - all of
    the pop-up topics were added after I converted to RH 6, but I've
    noticed odd things can happen when you bring a project into a newer
    version of the program.
    Thanks again, Peter.
    I don't have an answer but I have a workaround that
    I can live with!

  • Broken in new Safari: Spell Checking and Tabs

    Since upgrading to the newest Safari (2.0.2 (416.12)) I've found two things to not function as they used to:
    1) Spell checking in input boxes (like the one I'm typing in now) doesn't work. Misspelled words are still recognized and underlined in red, but right clicking on them doesn't produce a list of alternative choices like it used to.
    2) When you press apple-w, previous versions of safari would bring the next right-most tab into focus after closing the current window. Now Safari jumps to the last tab you were in. I find the other behavior much more intuitive and predictable. Is there any way to get it back or could this be a problem with Saft (a safari plugin)?
    Thanks,
    Craig

    Thank you so much, Craig and Salvatore! I had been a bit annoyed at the tab function change and really missed the spelling correction change, and was beginning to figure out how to explain the spelling correction problem -- finding Craig's posting of the problems and the answers from both of you was so timely.
    I'm sure Apple isn't happy about a 3rd party add-on "breaking" their product, but I so appreciate the "benefits" of this 3rd-party add-on!

  • Spell check and autocorrect not working

    I have them both turned on, but they aren't working. No corrections and no red lines.

    I have never done that but I do think that it will reset all of your preferences back to factory defaults. I'm not sure if you have to enter the WiFi settings or passcode again.
    The preferences are things like the keyboard dictionary, the brightness level, the auto correct and spell check. I think that it is a relatively benign thing to do.
    I copied this from How to reset iPad Settings - for Dummies
    How to Reset iPad Settings
    Life may not have a reset feature, but iPads do. If, for some reason, you want to return your iPad to its default settings, you can reset them. The last item under iPad's General settings is Reset. When you click it, you get options for resetting the following:
    Reset All Settings: Every one of the preferences and settings are reset, though information you've added to apps like Calendar and Contacts doesn't change at all.

  • How can I get Apple to pay attention to improving spell check and grammar?

    I love this company and the products they develop.   I am embarrassed at the number of Apple products that I have at this point.  However, I have to say that the spelling and grammar check on Mac Mail is awful.  I am a terrible speller, and am constantly forced to go to Google to find the correct spelling of a word that seems to totally confuse Apple spell check.  But here is the thing, you often need only have one letter missing or incorrect for Mac's spell check to show no results. 
    For example: cannibalize.   Try spelling it with one "n" and the spell check will show NO results.  Use two N's correctly, but replace the "i" with an "a" and again it is completely useless.  Obviously, this is ridiculous.  What good is a spell check that get's confused if you are one letter off of the correct spelling?  There are thousands of these examples, and sadly, I seem to find them all. 
    Moreover, when it does have suggestions, they are in a ridiculous order as well.   If it suggest 5 or six words, it generally seems to suggest extremely long tail (rare) words first, and the have the most commonly used words listed last (or again, not at all).  
    Grammar is similarly awful.   It is the ONE area as far as I am concerned that is clearly better on Windows and Google Apps, and yet seems so basic these days.  It's been around for 20 years for goodness sake. 
    I bring this up in the hopes that a truly motivated developer will fix core functionality.   In the meantime any tips for me (besides snarky advice about learning to spell).
    Rick

    I totally agree with you, I as well, cannot compose any complex messages in Mail, however I'm am stuck using a browser extension like "Gramercy" to assist me! Maybe after many replies Apple will address the issue
