Seemingly misspelled words are highlighted and underlined in orange color
selecting and right-clicking on a wrong word let's you correct the word or add it to the dictionary
in Worspace only:
- save the content of the workspace (ctrl+s) and click on the blue arrow in the top right corner. Then click Open SpellChecker
- ignored words are only ignored for the duration of this session
- words that are added to the dictionary survive a restart

Dictionary Management

Go to Apps -> Dictionary Setting to change the language or organize added words
On the left side you see the words that you added to your dictionary, you may select a word there and remove it with the 'remove word'-button below
On the right side you see an overview over your available dictionaries, choose another one and start typing to see changes

How to add more languages?

All available Languages are stored in the 'dictionaries'-folder in 'Ressources'
To add a language, simply create a new subfolder and insert the .dic and .aff file; no worries - those are available for free from the web
The name of the subfolder will be the name of the language on
The name of the .dic and .aff files do not matter
