Manually Editing Typos


The MapSpellerEdit Typo dialog is very flexible and powerful. It has three primary purposes. Users can:
  1. Edit a typo using the keyboard. This would be needed if typo's context menu didn't offer the wanted replacement word.
  2. Replace all occurrences of the misspelled word in the target container by the typed-in word. The word can be geographically bound or not.
  3. Add the edited word to either:
    • A personal dictionary.
    • A personal Locationary at the location of the word in the highlighted blue row of the Potential Typos dialog.
    • A personal Locationary at the locations of all geographic occurrences of the misspelled word that it replaces. The occurrences of the word outside of maps (if any) are not added to locationaries as they don't have a meaningful geographic location.

 
Important Note
 
The option to add the replacement word to a Locationary is only available if the misspelled word resides in a data frame.
