It frequently marks the text as red in my native language but never in English (unless there is a real error in the text). Anybody know why? See image below…

    I was just messing with the settings and this is what worked for me…

    In Heliboard settings:

    • Set the language to your native language.
      You may have to download and add the dictionary for your native language. For my native language it was missing, so it asked me to add it.
    • Turn on the multilingual typing option for English.

    In system settings:

    Go to Spell Checker settings (you can search that term in system settings, for me it was in Languages & Input > Tools category > Spell Checker)

    • You want to enable the spell checker if it isn’t already.
    • Set languages to your native language.
    • Set the default spell checker to Heliboard.

      The answer is here, you don’t need to enable multilingual typing, you just need to add Heliboard as spell checker on your system Settings. Then, of course, choose the right language in Heliboard and have a dictionary for that language too
