Hi :) I think just googling words is likely to get a better list of dictionaries and thus a better idea of what the word means.
It might be a good idea to post a feature request about getting something like that added to LibreOffice! It might be a nice touch. I guess problems would include; 1. how to set which dictionary 2. would the dictionary be on-line or include an option to download one? (a 3rd party one would be best rather than trying to maintain a new one in TDF imo) 3. would the button open the default web-browser or would the meaning appear within the LO interface somehow, maybe the status-bar. You can post a feature request by just posting a normal bug-report. I have been told that the various drop-downs at the top include options such as "Feature Request" and "Easy Hacks" alongside the normal options that other projects have. Someone recently said they couldn't find the option in the drop-downs so just add this into the subject-line [feature request] or [wish-list] Regards from Tom :) >________________________________ > From: Eneko Gotzon Ares <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Sent: Thursday, 11 October 2012, 8:18 >Subject: [libreoffice-users] Writer: word meaning and about information > >Good morning everybody! > >I'm just a beginner using LibreOffice (thanks so much for the suite!) and this >is my first post to the list, so... be indulgent with me :) > >Question: in Writer I do not find how to obtain the meaning of a word, neither >the –online– encyclopedic information about it.
