Notes:
- The Spell Check Project menu option enables you to check spelling for the entire project
- The Spell Check Current Package option only checks the package currently open, and does not enable you to select items to check
- Enterprise Architect currently supports checking an entire model or a single package; a future release should support more detailed spell checking at the element and diagram level
- In the Corporate, Business and Software Engineering, Systems Engineering and Ultimate editions of Enterprise Architect, if security is enabled you must have Spell Check permission to perform any spell check or change any spell check options
