Appleworks 6 spell checker (spellchecker) window
Pages is ok (if you believe that all of your word processing functions should be sliced into tiny pieces of spreadsheet, documents, etc, sorry, ranting)... but I like Appleworks. So I imported Appleworks 6 over from my previous Macbook to this one.
There is one problem. When I try to spellcheck my documents, a tiny little spellcheck window appears up at the menu bar. When I say tiny, that is, it is so small that it does not show me the actual words being flagged or the options to correct them -- all that can be seen is "1 Questionable Word." I cannot figure out how to resize or edit or work with this window, so spellcheck is pretty unusable. My best option right now is to export a document into Pages, spellcheck it there, and return to AW. Not good!
(One of the issues I have with Pages is the lack of outline capabilities -- creating a document in outline form. And when I tried to copy my outline from AW to Pages, the outline formatting disappeared! But those are other problems for another day.)
I have spent about an hour searching these forums, am finally throwing in the towel & posting, seriously hoping anyone can help. Thank you for very much for your ideas!
