Dear OO-Team,

today, I stumbled over a tiny problem concerning writing aids: the custom dictionaries. It is not possible to have more than 2000 words in one dictionary.

As I share a dictionary containing scientific phrases with my whole group, we have more than 2000 words belonging to one topic.

So my question / suggestion is to expand the content of custom wordbooks, if it is possible anyways.


2. Make a file containing as many words as you like, I have a Medical list of some 75000 words I am using at present. Name it with your language setting - Mine is en_AUMedical.dic and add it to your OOo_config/user/wordbook for personal use, or OOo_install/share/dict/ooo directory if you need a system wide dictionary

Then you need to edit the "dictionary.lst" file to add the name of the dictionary, and restart OOo. You will not see the name in your languages but it does work.

Just a note: As of OOo 3.0 the dictionary.lst is gone since it is the
reason for possibly loosing dictionary functionality when upgrading OOo.

Thomas

Thanks for the pointer, Thomas

When will that happen, and will there be instructions somewhere as to how to build your own dictionaries? I see dictionary.lst is still there in the beta3.0 ~/user/wordbook/ installation.

Regards

Russell
