for using AutoCorrect.The spell check feature in MindManager is like most standard spell checkers so it should be familiar. You run the spell check to check through all the topic text and notes text on the map.

On the Review tab, in the Proofing group, click Spelling.
Press F7.

Then click:
Change to change it
Change All to correct all the occurences of the word on the entire map.

The spelling dictionary language is determined by the document language.
To change the language for the current map, on the Review
tab, in the Proofing group, click

Click the Default button to make this the default language used for all new documents. You can also change the default language for new maps (but not the current map) in the MindManager Spelling options dialog.
MindManager comes with its own dictionaries for all supported languages. To expand the list of known words you have the option to add custom dictionaries to the spelling process.
MindManager uses the standard MS Office CUSTOM.DIC dictionary, and you can set options to use additional custom dictionaries in the Spelling Options dialog. A custom dictionary is a simple text file (file extension is *.DIC) that contains a list of correct words (each word in one single text line) with a blank line at the end. The spelling engine recognizes those words as correctly spelled.
The spell checker uses all custom dictionaries at the same time, when checking for misspelled words. When the user adds new misspelled words to the custom dictionary, they are added only to the dictionary selected in the Spelling dialog Add words to field.
