Bug ID: 158200
Summary: LibreOffice Writer 7.6 spell check doesn't work after
recent update
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.2.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I just updated my LibreOffice Writer to 7.6.2 after being prompted to do so on
11/12/2023 and now when I type my document, it doesn't show me when I have a
misspelled word. When I use the spell check manually, it tells me that all
words are spelled correctly even after purposefully misspelling a word. How can
I correct this without reverting to a prior version of the program or is that
my only option until the next update?
Steps to Reproduce:
1.update to 7.6.2
2. write nonsense word
3.use spell check
Actual Results:
Spell check on my LibreOffice 7.6.2 used on my 64-bit operation system Windows
10 Home edition laptop computer hasn't worked since updating to the newest
version of the program.
Expected Results:
I expect spell check to be able to pick up on misspelled words (meaning that
when I type out something like "akdefxz" there should be a red line under it to
indicate a misspelled word. Either that or when I click on spell check
manually, it should pick up on it right away.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
Instead of picking up on misspelled words, it does absolutely nothing to
correct these issues. It forces me to copy and paste everything to a new
document in a different word processor program and do my spell check there,
then recopy and paste everything back once again which is tedious work and
completely unnecessary
