Finding words

To find a word in your dictionary: simply start typing it! A few letters usually suffice to find the word you are looking for.
Note:
A timing mechanism is constantly making intelligent guesses about the characters you type. If you wait more than about 1 second before typing a character, the application will assume you wish to find another word, and forget the previous characters you typed. If for some reason you are not able to type characters fast enough, use the "Find" option from the menu or the toolbar.


You do not have to bother about capitals or accents, nor about spaces, hyphens and quotes. To find "X-Ray" for example, simply type "xray"

You can also PASTE a word directly into the dictionary screen - it will start searching for a match immediately.
