Spellchecker correction applied to highlighted words spills beyond one word

[ArthurZ]

Applying a spellchecker suggestion to only one word when multiple words are highlighted (or entire sentences) erases the rest of the highlighted text minus the corrected word.

Steps to reproduce:
1.Open up a new text file and ensure the spellchecker is active;
2. Type “Sqush/Squash commits before merging”;
3. Highlight this sentence and right click on the misspelled word;
4. Choose a suggestion and it will erase the part of the sentence that does not belong to this word.

Desired result: only the misspelled word is replaced.

Hello,

It depends on how those words are highlighted. If they were highlighted exactly the same way as misspelled words, EmEditor will NOT figure out which text are misspelled words, and currently this is limitation of EmEditor. If this is important, I might have to look into the issue. If you are NOT sure what I mean, please send me a screenshot so that I can figure out exactly what the issue is.

Thanks,
