Bug ID: 173559
Summary: Spell Check fails if a hyphen is included in an alpha
field
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.8.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Spelling check by pressing Function Key 7 fails if the text contains a hyphen /
minus embedded in the text. No error is shown in red but the complete sentence
is displayed and spell check stalls.
If the 3 Example lines below are in a document being checked the check fails
on the first line which is displayed in the “error box” from the start up to
and including the “e.g.”, ( which is in the dictionary), but not the end of
line BV-A.
Attempting to continue the spell check from this point fails with variable
results.
The problem is to do with the hyphen.
Selecting just the BV-X also fails and displays the entire line as above.
Example lines 2 and 3 do the same.
However, if the hyphen is changed to some other character, such as a + plus
sign, the spell check does not fail and the “spelling” can be ignored once,
all, or add to the dictionary
Examples
BV Ball valves - identified as BV-X where X is upper case A to Z e.g. BV-A
GV Gate valves - identified as GV-X where X is the Tank Id e.g. GV-T3
CV Check valve - identified as CV-X where X is the nearest BV identifier
Actual Results:
See Description above.
Expected Results:
Spell check should not stop on hyphen
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:

is the Version and build number
Version 28.8.0.3 (X86_64)
