Check Spelling gets in the way

[Miguel Gonzalez]

While running a Spell Check, when it founds a wrong word, a pop-up window shows up to offer suggestions. This pop-up window is called Check Spelling.

The problem is that it gets in the way of the Spell Check window so you have to move the Check Spelling window away to see and read in what context you wrote that word. Once you see where you mistook, you correct it and the popped window Check Spelling gets dismissed.

Then when another wrong word is found, the Check Spelling pop-ups again in the middle of the Spell Check window so you have to move it away again.

It is so annoying.

It would be better if EA would remember the last position of the pop-up Check Spelling window and keeps popping up in that location.

Miguel.

Bump bump bump bump. I agree

Me too!

But since it's a Wintertree component Sparx may not have enough control over it...

I can't see any record that it was ever sent in as a bug report.  So it's not surprising that it wasn't changed.

To clarify: I'm not searching feature requests.
