Here’s how you can enable automatic spelling and grammar check as you type in LibreOffice Writer.
How To Turn On Red Line Spell Check In Word
Open a document in Word for Mac. On the Edit menu, click Select All. On the Tools menu, click Language. Select the language dictionary you want the speller to use, such as English (US). While in the middle of writing a document, the spell check red line went away and I have no idea why or how. May have hit a key on my keyboard or something. So, I tried this and it worked for me. 1) I went into Tools/Spelling and Grammar/Options and unticked 'Check Spelling as you type' since it was already ticked but not working. When your spelling is checked, misspelled words are underlined in red, and suggested corrections are shown. On your Mac, choose Apple menu System Preferences, click Keyboard, then click Text. Select the “Correct spelling automatically” checkbox. In an app, type your content.
LibreOffice Writer supports multiple language dictionaries that are used to validate the grammar of the words as you type alongside spelling. The Writer shows red color curved line under the incorrect word in the document after it validates against the supported dictionary. And grammar errors are shown blue color curved underline against phrases.
How to Enable Automatic Spelling and Grammar Check
There are two ways to check spelling and grammar.
A) Manual mode and B) Automatic Mode as you type.
To enable the automatic spelling and grammar check, go to Menu Tools → Options. From the left side menu, select Language under Language Settings. Make sure to choose appropriate language under “Default Languages for Documents” – e.g. Western: English (USA).
Go to Writing Aids Option to the left and under options choose ‘Check spelling as you type’ and ‘Check grammar as you type’.
Press OK.
Now Go to the “English Sentence Checking” option and select options under Grammar Checking and Punctuation.
Now you can see red curly underline on words that have spelling errors.
And the blue line shows only grammar errors as per your chosen options.
