moderated JAWS spell

Don Walls
Well
friends, I’m having an interesting week – moved from a “dumb” phone to my first
IPhone and also updated from JAWS 17 to JAWS 2020. My new JAWS tells me I
have “misspelling” on various words – probably American rather than my Canadian
spelling. I’ve gone to the settings centre but can’t find where to silence
such prompts and sound effects. Any help gratefully received! Don

If you are in Word, press the quick settings, insert+v.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Arrow down to editing options, and the second item is Spelling Error detection, on.
Spacebar to turn it off.
Enter to save.
I don't know if that turns it off forever.

Just
tried and your suggestion didn’t work. However, it pointed to the settings
via utilities and that seems to have turned off the unwanted
commentary. Don

Thank you, Joe. With JAWS 2020 I found what I needed in text
processing in the settings centre.
