AutoCorrect Dictionaries Preferences
To set the Dictionaries preferences for the AutoCorrect feature, open the Preferences dialog box and go to . This page allows you to specify the location of the dictionaries that Oxygen XML Editor uses for the AutoCorrect feature and the location for saving user-defined replacements.
The following options are available in this preferences page:
- Dictionaries default folder
- Displays the default location where the dictionaries that Oxygen XML Editor uses for the AutoCorrect feature are stored.
- Include dictionaries from
- Enable this option if you want to specify an additional location for the dictionaries
that Oxygen XML Editor will use for the AutoCorrect feature.Note: The AutoCorrect feature takes into account dictionaries collected both from the default and custom locations and multiple dictionaries from the same language are merged into a generic dictionary (for example, en_UK.dat from the default location is merged with en_US.dat from a custom location, and the result is that a third file is created for a generic dictionary called en.dat). However, if there is already a generic dictionary (for example, en.dat) saved in either the default or custom location, the other specific dictionaries (for example, en_UK.dat and en_US.dat) will not be merged and the existing generic dictionary will simply be used. Also, if the additional location contains a file with the same name as one from the default location, the file in the additional location takes precedence over the file from the default location. The user-defined replacements are never merged.
