API to mark words with squiggly underline
We wanted to offer a feature request- API to mark words with squiggly underline. We are considering using third-party software for various text corrections (for instance grammar and NLP based text corrections). We would like to mark words (or a sentence) with squiggly underline (in a different color than the spellchecker's red) to inform the user about problematic parts.

With TX Text Control's spell checking feature this should be possible with the SpellCheckTextEventArgs.MisspelledWords property

Hey Gunnar- we are looking for API to mark words we find as misspelled, rather than to get the words you find as misspelled.
We want to be able to extend the spellchecking mechanism (for instance to add grammar checks, or context based checks).
If this could be made so just one squiggly was one of several options bring attention to one or more words without altering the document that would be even better. That way words could be marked for attention for several different purposes at once. Squiggly, thick underline, and box around the word, all with definable colors would be ideal.
