To reproduce: - Add some misspelled words. - Enable the spell check - the layout is updated and the words are underlined. - Disable the spell check - the lines are not removed until one clicks in the RichTextEditor. Workaround: radRichTextEditor1.IsSpellCheckingEnabled = !radRichTextEditor1.IsSpellCheckingEnabled; radRichTextEditor1.Document.LayoutMode = DocumentLayoutMode.Paged; radRichTextEditor1.Document.LayoutMode = DocumentLayoutMode.Flow;
