[ARCHIVED] spell check

[patrikm]

I am unable to find a complaint form through canvas, but the spell check system is completely unacceptable. Most simply misspelled words don't have a recommendation for the right spelling, much less any support for complicated words with convoluted spelling. This must be a simple issue to fix, yet becomes a large problem with every homework assignment completed through canvas.

Good evening, @patrikm ...

I'm not sure I understand your question.  Canvas does not have a built-in spell checker.  Rather, Canvas relies on the spell checker that is built into your web browser...such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.  You can, for example, configure your spell check settings in Google Chrome...adding words that you feel need to be added to your own customized spell check list.  I imagine the same is true for Mozilla Firefox.

I hope this helps a bit.  Please let Community members know if you have any other questions about this...thanks!  Take care, stay safe, and be well.
