Hi list,
I fully support Manveru's reasoning.
When writing in my native language german I don't want to be disturbed
at all by these red underlinings. And I#m well aware that in my
documents there are ALWAYS lot of typos.
So Ihave to give it a critical look when I have finished writing.
In mot cases this turns out to be helpful anyway ;-)
And most documents I (have to) read show that the author has not had
sufficient self discipline to give his work a second look.
IMHO this is one of the negative effects of the crazy conditions many
poeple have to work under nowadays.
When I write a document in an other language I don't care about typos
while writing (even if I notice one myself). Clearly I need the self
discipline of a small investment in the quality of my documents.
Be sure no high quality document can be produced just hacking in the
text, correcting typos on the fly .. and that's it.
For me LyX/LaTeX is a great tools to produce high quality documents
Best regards
Hellmut

For most writers such feature is more a bug that a helpful feature. Those
annoying red underlines may break your way of thinking during writing, the
same is about autocorrection. These Word feature is for people, who do not
want to click "spell check my doc" every time they finish writing - there
are plenty of writers who still use typewriters - they do not like to be
corrected on-line.
If such feature ever be created for LyX it should be disabled by default
IMVHO.

Is there any chance that LyX in the future will support spell check on

where each misspelled word is underlined with a red line in the editor
if
its incorrectly spelled?
When/if someone feels like implementing this, there might be a chance
yes. But nobody ever felt this way up to now :-)
