New spell check highlight--how to disable
anoneditor I see I'm replying to an 18 month old post, but we only just got Office 365 at work (a jump from Word 2013!) and this red highlight issue is driving me nuts. I'm googled out about this issue. Did you find out anything? Thanks in advance.
Note, this is not the place to get any changes made in Word nor the attention of developers at Microsoft. This is an independent user-to-user support forum. MS does not see anything you post here. The way to get their attention is through the feedback mechanisms.
- How do I give feedback on Microsoft Office?
- Word Feedback Portal – allows a public feedback that can be voted on
- Microsoft applications Feedback Portal (pick an application)
- Send Feedback to MS Developers
- Bonus Reading related to MS Feedback system
My personal preference is to use the Word Feedback Portal. If you do, please get a share link and post it here so that others seeing this thread can go there and vote and comment.
- Yes I'm aware of that. My post was asking if anyone knew of any change. I have already given feedback through the proper channels.
ShazLea No new developments here either. Welcome to the thread! That highlighting is still super-frustrating but I just had to learn to deal with it. It does still really slow down my writing though. If I'm working on something very complex with lots of new words, I just have to turn off the spellcheck until I'm at a draft check stage.
And yes, I reported the problem to Microsoft through proper channels back when this thread was first active. I'm sure they don't read those comments either anyway.
