Assembly for RadSpellChecker

[Todd Millett]

A very basic question, but i downloaded the latest radcontrols for silverlight (march 16 2011), but was not able to find the radSpellChecker control. I included the following dlls : 
Telerik.Windows.Controls.dll
Telerik.Windows.Controls.docking.dll
Telerik.Windows.Controls.gridview.dll
Telerik.Windows.Controls.input.dll
Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.dll
Telerik.Windows.Data.dll

Also has the help been published for this control?

[Todd Millett]

That was solved.

Hi Todd Millett,

We are glad you resolved the problem. Nevertheless in case you are curious about our answer, RadSpellChecker resides in the Teleric.Windows.Controls namespace, but the assembly which you have to include is Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing.
We are working on the documentation(including help) and it should be out any day now.

If any other question arise, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Greetings,

I am actually looking forward to this controls' capabilities, so would be great if you could let me know when the help documentation is available.

Hello Todd Millett,

 We hope we can make the help available in a week or so. I will post a message in this thread when that happens.

hi team,

i've downloaded the RadControls for silverlight 2011. i can see the new control RadSpellChecker control added to this version.

i want to create my own custom control by inheriting RadSpellChecker control. 

public Class MySpellChecker : RadSpellChecker
{

}

But i dont see RadSpellChecker control in the Toolbox and the above code gives a compile time error.

request you to share a sample code for the above example and help me to implement my spellchecker control in the right approach.

Thank you

Hi Manjerekar,

RadSpellChecker can be used to spell-check TextBox, RichTextBox, RadRichTextBox, DataGrid or RadGridView out of the box. You can preview how it works in our online demos.
In order to use RadSpellChecker in your project on a text box, you need to add a reference to the Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing assembly. If you will be using it on a RadGridView or a DataGrid, you need to reference Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing.RadGridView or Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing.DataGrid respectively.

You can find more information on implementing a custom spell-checker here.
If you need further assistance, please share some more details on the scenario you have in mind and the type of controls you will be spell-checking.

I, too, am having the same problem, where the RadSpellChecker control does not appear in my Toolbox. I have added references to Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing and Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing.Dictionaries.En-US. I have also tried manually adding the control to the Toolbox, via the "Choose Items" context menu. RapSpellChecker does not appear in the list of available Silverlight controls.

The documentation also states... "After adding reference to the aforementioned dlls, you can use the static class RadSpellChecker and its Check(Control controlToSpellCheck, SpellCheckingMode mode) method." I see no such static class under the Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing namespace.

Am I missing something?

I am using RadControls for Silverlight Q2 2012 SP1.

Thanks

Oops... nevermind. I found the static class under Telerik.Windows.Controls, not Telerik.Windows.Documents.Proofing. My bad.
