You cannot change the document language? 
Do you refer to the drop-down menu triggered by right-button mouse click?
This should change the language of the text part you've currently selected.

This is not related.

spell checker problem

2012-04-17 Thread Andres Ordonez
Hi, I'm not able to use the spell checker for Spanish. 

I'm using LyX 2.0.0 on Ubuntu 11.10. I installed the Spanish language
through Ubuntu's Language Support and changed the language to Spanish in
the document-settings in LyX. The Spanish entry in the drop-down menu
appears checked but when I select it it immediately changes back to
English. I also have German language support and I don't have this
problem with it.Spell checking works fine in LibreOffice Writer.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I can confirm this issue also on my site (same configuration).

First I 'added' Gärdenfors in the spell checker dialog then suddenly it 
complains about correct words like 'with'.
Secondly the added word does not appear in any of my personal aspell 
dictionaries (~/.aspell.*)

I tried also to play with 'use input encoding' in lyx spell checker 
preferences, no effect either.

Spell checker problem

2010-07-01 Thread Mehrdad Oveisi
Hello

I am using LyX 1.6.6.1 on a Mac. I am setting the document encoding to
Unicode (utf8), and I use aspell as the spell checker.

On my system if an article contains non-English letters, e.g. Gärdenfors,
spell checker gets confused. That is, after reaching "Gärdenfors", if I hit
"Add" so that it does not pick it as an error, then after that point it
picks some correct words and reports them as misspelled, and it misses
actually misspelled words.

Please find attached a sample lyx file which contains a few spelling errors
and the word Gärdenfors. The spell checker behavior after the word
Gärdenfors is not as expected.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Ypu don't need to install Aspell manually - the LyX-installers do this 
for you.

I suppose you are only suffering from a misconfiguration. To fix thias

1. uninstall the Aspell dictionaries
2. uninstall Asepll
3. uninstall LyX _completely_
4. open an Internet connection
5. reinstall LyX using the small version of this installer
http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller

This will reinstall Aspell and its dictionaries and also take care of 
the configuration.



In tools preferences , Language I have English USA which is the
default. In Spellchecker, aspell library is chosen by default but it
is grey. (cannot change it)


This is correct, because LyX on Windows only supports Aspell as spell 
checker.

Hello,

I have installed Lyx 1.6  in Windows XP, and everything works fine
apart from check speller.
I have aspell 0-50-3-3 installed and on that the English package, in C
directory as suggested. Initially it was installed in Program Files
too and moved it from there.

I have googled it fanatically and  did not get an answer. Lyx is
installed in Program Files. And Lyx was installed before Aspell. I
have reconfigured Lyx but still nothing.
I get this message that" no word lists can be found for en_US.

In tools preferences , Language I have English USA which is the
default. In Spellchecker, aspell library is chosen by default but it
is grey. (cannot change it) I think that the proble is I cannot
explain to Lyx where to get the libraries from.

Lyx is really great, and I appreciate the effort you have put for an
excellent open source software.

Thank you in advance,
Lia
