LCB spellcheck
nick205 - 1/9/16 at 08:51 AM

Morning,

A silly question perhaps, but LCB spellcheck when writing posts appears to be working from a U.S. English point of view. I can't see a way to change this - am I missing something?

Cheers
Nick

checks in english for me, so certainly possible.
check your computers language settings, windows invariably defaults to english-us

color vs colour

Fair point and one of the things I've checked. Windows 7 Pro on my work laptop is set to UK English. Spellcheck works OK in other programs like Word, Excel etc.

Internet settings, advanced settings, then you'll find a languages section. You will need to add English (United Kingdom) as for some reason my Chrome has reverted to a English (US) version, possibly in an update as I was having the same issue.

Hi Waller - well done, a check and modification in Google Chrome (+ restart) solved it thanks!

Useful post, that's something that always bugged me, never occurred to me you could do anything about it, now sorted - thanks!

Likewise it's been an irritation for a while and now isn't

No harm in asking for help now and again.
