  There is an issue with the right click context menu item “Spelling”.
  
  This issue does not effect the selection of a spelling suggestion.
  
  In other words, the issue effects the button I have highlighted in Red. The option highlighted in green works all good.
  
  

  The issue is only if the TextBox is bound to a BindingSource.

  If you click the “Spelling” button, all changes made to the textbox since load disappear straight away. In other words, the difference between what was bound, and what is currently in the textbox.

  Here are pictures to explain what I mean.

  

  To mitigate the problem I listen to the TextBox MouseDown event and call BindingSource.EndEdit(), but I do not like this solution as it is prone to error down the track when I use the Spelling Control on another bound text box.

  This does not happen if the TextBox is not bound.

  Is this a known issue?

  Also, is there a way to override the “Spelling” button on the context menu to call CheckControl with “false” for FromCursor instead of true? Because even if the user right clicks on a word at the start of the TextBox and uses that button it will not show the dialog at all if the cursor is currently at the end of the textbox.

  Hi,

  We have reported the issue to the development team and will let you know as soon as we have an update. [Tracking Id : C1WIN-27749]

  To change the behavior of the “Spelling” context menu item, you can use the ContextMenuCreated event. In the event handler, you can remove the original toolstripitem and add a similar toolstripitem. Then you can handle the click event of the new item to perform your custom function. Please refer to the sample attached that calls the CheckControl method with fromCursor = false.

  Regards

  Hi Uttkarsh

  Thanks for the reply. It has been nearly 2 years. I found a workaround for the issue as mentioned above, but was wondering how long bugs (with available workarounds like the one above) take to resolve. As mentioned, the workaround is manual, and needs to be repeated whenever the control is used.

  Kind Regards
