SpacesAfterFullStop

Description
The SpacesAfterFullStop setting is used to determine the number of spaces after a full stop, when performing spell checks on the Student Results Maintenance window.

Users cannot override this setting if Auto Spell is On. See AutoSpellCheck configuration setting.
 

Default value
The default value is 2.
The spell check feature adds two spaces after a full stop.
 

Setting a different value
You can update the Value field on the Configuration File Maintenance window. See Maintaining configuration files.

While it is common that people add two spaces after a full stop, the generally accepted standard for good business writing is that only 1 (one) space is used.
