OneNote (OSX) Language Proofing

Anonymous

Hey everyone, 

I have OneNote for my MacBook (the default language is English) and when I set the proofing language to Spanish (I'm studying at a University in Chile), it seems to go back to English after a few minutes of writing. I know there is a solution for this with OneNote for Windows, but has anyone found a solution for the OSX version? 

Thanks,

    Hi Logan,

    Thanks for your feedback on Mac OneNote.

    We are aware and are investigating some issues with setting of proofing languages.

    In general, the proofing language is set by your keyboard language setting. So when you create new paragraphs or text blocks we set the proofing language based on the keyboard language.

    Thanks,

    Chris

    I have similar problem.

    My mac is all english but OneNote keeps changing proofing language to my native language with every paragraph.

    I don't know where he gets that setting from.

    Can it be taken from Microsoft region setting?

    Hope they gonna fix that as this is super annoying.

    The same issue. Change for Spanish language but it keeps in English (doesn't change). Tried to save my work, re open and the same.

    I believe it's a known bug: the language is reset to English by default

    for every new paragraph. Really really annoying…
