(Apologies: I forgot this email list is a reply all instead a reply to send
to the entire list., below is my reply for the whole list. I apologies for
those that got it already when I just replied.)
Yes this is the case. I also know it would be a major performance hit if
there was processing done in real time to check misspellings in any of the
interfaces.
After all, it is already heavier in terms of processing power when realtime
spell check is done.

My experience with NVDA is that you only hear misspellings in input text
areas, I.e. in circumstances where you're likely already editing said text.
I don't even think Gecko and other apps *report* spelling errors in
non-input text as that'd be a huge performance hit for little gain.

This is how other screen readers I've used work, i.e. you only hear if
a word is misspelled if you're navigating by word or character. I
prefer this behaviour when I'm reading something someone else wrote,
but I agree it would be nice to hear this when proof reading my own
stuff.

It's on my todo list. Right now I'm completely reworking Orca's text
support so that Orca intelligently presents cut, copy, paste,
non-clipboard deletion, undo, text selection in Gecko, etc. It should
also make it easier to implement a "proofreading" mode.

Agreed with this as well, definitely makes proofreading text more
difficult.

Hi,
I think this is intended, but I agree with you that somethimes it
could be helpful to have it read regardless.
After all, a sighted person is not required to point a word with the
mouse in order to examine its spelling.
Best wishes,
Zahari

Hi, I have a question concerning misspelled indicator. Is it
currently possible to receive indications of misspelling during
normal reading of text? Now I can hear "misspelled" while reading
by characters, but not while doing a continous read or reading
line by line. Is this expected to happen? Thanks, Vojta
