** Description changed: This has been the case since Beta 2. To reproduce: 1) Type out a load of rubbish on the keyboard as well as a few correctly spelled words. I used "vmw;qbjk aoeuasnth aoeu house in the street" 2) Press F7 to initiate the spell check. Actual Result: The spell check notifies the user of completion without any recognition of errors. Expected Result: The spell check should highlight each misspelled word and offer alternatives. - A workaround for the time-being is to write your document in gedit, - check spelling when complete and then paste it into libreoffice-writer - afterwards for formatting. + WORKAROUND: Open the dash and run Language Support + 2) Under the 'Language' tab, choose another variant of English and drag it above the US English so it takes precedence. + 3) Click "Apply System-wide" and log out. + + On logging back in, spell check will work. + + Not reproducible in Xubuntu 32-bit. + + lsb_release -rd + Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS + Release: 12.04 + + apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer + libreoffice-writer: + Installed: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 + Candidate: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 + Version table: + *** 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + 1:3.5.2-2ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: libreoffice-writer 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic-pae 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic-pae i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: i386 Date: Fri May 11 08:53:51 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Beta i386 (20120328) ProcEnviron: - LANGUAGE=en_IE:en - TERM=xterm - PATH=(custom, no user) - LANG=en_IE.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANGUAGE=en_IE:en + TERM=xterm + PATH=(custom, no user) + LANG=en_IE.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: libreoffice UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
