Spell Check - treat underscore as word separator
Hello Andy
Andy wrote: What exactly are these underscores (sound like variable names)? Possibly, you could add them individually to your custom dictionary? The underscores separate words in variable names, such as data elements and file names. The words themselves tend to be proper words, as opposed to abbreviations (e.g. vendor_address_1 as opposed to vendor_addr1). Adding them all to a custom dictionary would not be practical (we're talking about thousands of possibilities, since customer_address_1, client_address_1 and attorney_address_1 are just some of the possibilities for Address 1 alone). you could automate the adding part, but I agree it's probably not elegant anyway. If you don't want to see spelling errors there, I only see two options: - adding the variable names to the custom dictionary, or - setting the language property of these words to "no proofing" (you could use a character style for this).
