Can someone confirm if spell checker checks the text in keynotes?
I've run a spellchecker in a project where I noticed I'd spelt Kingspan [knigspan] incorrectly and thought, 'Oh, I'll run a spellcheck, and that will solve it. ' Only to find that this was not changed. I'm just wanted to make sure this isn't a result of not checking a box somewhere.
Operating system used: Windows 11 24H2
Solved! Go to Solution.

@James B& @Barry Kelly Thanks. Wish added.
There is a work around by exporting the keynotes to an excel file, spell checking in excel, then reimporting. It does come up with a warning note that keynote links might be lost but so far I've not had an issue and I even needed to correct a folder spelling.

Let's flag this to the attention of the master of keynotes, @James B .

I believe that the spell checker can only check manually inputted text - not inside auto text like keynotes or properties. But I haven’t had time to recheck this though.
I’d suggest adding a wish for this. Thanks.
