Check spelling based on Hunspell dictionaries
WINDEV allows you to use the integrated spelling checker on several controls in WINDEV applications: - Word Processing control.
- edit control.
- column of Table control in edit mode.
This spelling correction can be carried out on the user's workstation using dictionaries such as Hunspell. These dictionaries can be easily found online. These dictionaries include a ".dic" file and a ".aff" file with the same name that must be found at the same location. Note: It is recommended to comply with the redistribution license of each dictionary file used.. Default setting By default, if your project contains a control that uses a spelling checker (Word Processing, edit control, etc.): - The spelling checker is enabled in the controls, in English and French.
- The FR and US dictionaries (and their readmexxx.txt licenses) are automatically copied into the generation directory of the application.
Note: Until version 23, spelling correction in Edit control fields and Table Columns was performed via OpenOffice.. From version 24, it is possible to use the integrated spelling checker for these controls as well. To configure the spelling checker used by the project: - Open the project description window. To do so, go to the "Project" tab, "Project" group, and click "Description".
- On the "Options" tab, in the "Spelling checker" area, select the spelling checker used for the project:
- Integrated spell-checker: spell-checking based on Hunspell dictionaries.
- Open Office spelling checker: spelling checks (for Edit control fields and Table field columns) will be based on OpenOffice dictionaries..
Operating mode The French and English dictionaries are automatically loaded. Spelling mistakes are underlined in red in the control. By right-clicking on the underlined word you can: - get a list of suggestions.
- add the word to the Hunspell dictionary. In this case, the words added to the dictionary are stored in the following file: "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\PC SOFT\perso.dic".
Configuring the spell check Overview Several options and functions are used to configure the spell check: Automatic copy of dictionaries The management of dictionary copy is performed in the project options: - On the "Project" tab, in the "Project" group, click "Description".
- On the "Options" tab, check or uncheck "Automatically copy the dictionaries to the generation directory".
- Validate.
Loading and associating dictionaries with a language You can use the DictionaryLoad function to load a Hunspell dictionary and associate it with a language or sublanguage. This function must be called before starting the spelling checker. Notes on the Word Processing control:
- A docx document contains information about the document language. This information is used to identify the dictionary language that will be used.
- If the dictionary corresponding to the document language is placed beside the executable, it is automatically loaded and used to correct the document. If the dictionary corresponding to the document language is not found, the spell check is not available.
- When creating a docx document via the Word Processing control, the document language corresponds to the current application language (defined by Nation for example).
Enable or disable the spelling checker The spelling checker can be enabled: - by the end-user (only for the Word Processing control): simply select the "Enable spelling correction" option in the Word Processing control ribbon..
- programmatically with the CheckSpell property.
- in the control description window:
- For the Word Processing control: option "Enable [Check spelling] by default" ("General" tab).
- For Edit control: option "Check spelling" ("Detail" tab).
- For Table field columns: option "Check spelling" ("Detail" tab of the Text column description).
