Spell checker is available since FreeMind 1.0.0 and naturally in the latest Release 1.0.1.

Spell checking works when one edits a node, whether a short plain text node, a long plain text node or a rich text (HTML) node. There is no way to systematically collect all spelling mistakes in a mind map other than editing a node one at a time.

Right clicking on a misspelled word in an editing mode provides a context submenu Spelling, where replacement words are offered. Furthermore, right clicking on word in an editing mode (misspelled or not) provides a context submenu Languages, where another language for spell checking can be chosen.

Spell checking is enabled by default. It can be disabled in preferences on the tab Environment, option "Check spelling".

FreeMind uses JOrtho spell checking library for Java.

The author of the spell checking function for FreeMind is Eicke.
