They all say "Default English - USA" and the dictionaries I have installed are: /opt/libreoffice3/basis3.3/share/wordbook/en-US/soffice.dic /opt/libreoffice3/basis3.3/share/wordbook/en-US/oracle.dic and ~/.libreoffice/3/user/wordbook/mystd.dic ~/.libreoffice/3/user/wordbook/standard.dic None of that seems to work. For the record, here's what I have in OO: /opt/openoffice.org/basis3.2/share/wordbook/en-US/soffice.dic /opt/openoffice.org/basis3.2/share/wordbook/en-US/sun.dic and ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/wordbook/lhstandard.dic ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/wordbook/mystd.dic ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/wordbook/standard.dic The lhstandard and mystd are my own dictionaries, but NONE of them work. I'm not seeing any mini-ABC or checkmarks. I just looked in my OOo settings and that shows "English - USA" with the ABC and checkmark in the default language setting. I changed my LO setting to match, but there's still no ABC check. I thought LO came with the USA English dictionary by default - is that part of the desktop integration that isn't integrating because it conflicts with OOo? Everything else appears to be exactly the same - what am I missing? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail to [email protected] List archives are available at http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted.
