My language is not supported and I have a lot of texts red-underlined from the spell-checker. I don't want it. How can I turn it off?

Hi @pixycz:

Thanks for your feedback on this. It isn't currently possible to disable spell checking from inside 1Password 8. I've shared your feedback with the team. While I can't promise anything specifically, we use feedback like yours to help inform the future of 1Password.

Same here. I constantly switch between Dutch and English. Would be great if such option could be added.
Edit: running on Win10

Everything is full of red squiggly lines, which is just visual clutter and keeps distracting me from the actual user interface.
Can you let us know whether there’s an undocumented setting for this, for example by manually adding a property in ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/1Password/settings/settings.json?

@Claudi

I'm afraid that I'm not aware of such a hidden setting. I'm sorry that you're seeing a lot of underlined text from the spellchecker, can you tell me if you're storing information in a different language in 1Password? I'd like to pass along your feedback and experience to our product team.

Please... I can only second that. I have tons of red-underlined text and this is not a question of language. One really needs to be able to switch spell-checking off.

@robertaramar

Thank you for the feedback, can you tell me a little more about the kinds of words that are being underlined? Knowing more about how the issue is manifesting on your Mac will help our product and development teams better understand the need for the change and find the correct solution.
