# Checking for Misspelled Words

Use spell check across your entire script or while editing text in each element on a layout

Here are ways to find misspelled words in your script:
- To check spelling as you type, choose Edit->Spelling->"Check Spelling as You Type."

  To turn off spell checking as you type, choose Edit->Spelling->"Check Spelling as You Type" to deselect it (make sure the checkmark is not visible next to the command).

  To check spelling from the insertion point to the end of the script, click to place the insertion point and choose Edit->Spelling->Check Spelling.

  The first misspelled word found is highlighted. You can correct it or choose the same command again to continue checking the script.

- To check spelling and view suggestions for misspelled words, choose Edit->Spelling->Spelling.

  The Spelling window opens and you can use it as Working with Spelling Suggestions describes.

To find misspelled words in your layout:
- Make sure "Check Spelling as You Type" is enabled (as described above) to get quick feedback on spelling problems as you add your text.
- Double click on the text in an element and choose Edit->Spelling->Check Spelling.
