DU3 looks great on Windows 8/IE10 except for Spell Check

Last edited Thu Dec 20, 2012, 11:57 PM - Edit history (1)

DU3 looks great in IE10. The lines are different. It's more crisp looking.

There is a version of IE10 inside the Start Menu (Metro Interface). DU3 is beautiful in the Metro Browser. The only problem is with spell check. It corrects misspellings fine. But once spell check is completed, a message pops up. Metro IE struggles with the pop up message. IE basically freezes. Eventually the message text will appear and I can clear it.

It would be nice to have this fixed.

EDIT: Fixed? It's working great today.

[font color="#ffffff"]Yes, IE (and this post) is a joke if IE still doesn't have spell check.[/font]

I'm used to hitting tab, then spacebar to spell check.

I've noticed that IE ten will auto-correct some words too (i.e. separate).
