I couldn’t agree more. This notepad is terrific and has such a wide range of uses. I’m a writer (or intend to be one), and would really appreciate having a spell checking capability.
Hi,
I’d also be interested in a spellchecker.
I found out that LanguageTool (a multi language tool which can “checks your writing in more than 20 languages”) has many plugins here.
We use Ace Editor which doesn’t support spell checking as of now. Although Typora can be used, open the Note with the “Edit in external Editor”. Typora has a great Spellcheck, but you can use every other Markdown Editor.
Yes, while that is an option LanguageTool already is compatible with Markdown languages for grammar correction, it just has to be created really. I think it can work with just about anything, and it'll correct what it has rules for.
Would this be a simple implementation? I'm savvy with computers but know nothing about the realm of coding and plugin creation.
I'm a student, and I am learning that I can essentially rely on Joplin for 60% of my workload. The other portion of the workload is handled by Okular which is a PDF annotator. I like how I'm able to click on my PDF and open it from Joplin which opens Okular for editing. Okular auto saves the edits to Joplin which is fantastic as well, I didn't know this was a feature until recently - it should be advertised more, this is EXCELLENT for students, SO good! For instance, I have my syllabus uploaded and when I click on the PDF I scroll down to my course outline and strikeout tasks for each week straight from the syllabus, amazing!
Making PDF annotation similar to Okular on Joplin should be natively implemented rather than having a 3rd party dependency. I hope someone literate in what in necessary to create these changes reads my post!
LanguageTool is an Open Source language/grammar checker for English, German, French, Polish and other languages. It can also easily be extended to even more languages. It's rule-based, i.e. it will find errors for which a rule is defined in XML or in Java.
There is a spell checking in Joplin (Tools->Spell checker).
However, currently it is possible to choose only one language for the spell checking (either English or Italian, etc). I need spell checking in 3 (human) languages for the joplin notes (probably it seems strange but that is life ).
Please could you suggest how it is possible to apply spell checking for 3 (or at least 2) languages in Joplin?
For me, the spell checker isn't working it seems. Here is a screen shot that shows it is on, and has a clear typo that is not identified. None of my mistakes are in fact identified... I'm using Joplin 2.1.9 (prod, linux). What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!
I'm a little late to the party.. LOL but nonetheless, thx for that tip. Been driving me crazy this past year trying to figure out what the heck was going on. Just now getting around to figuring out what was wrong. Now everything is good in the universe.
