I, personally, am not disappointed with LO; at least not in the fields we are talking about right now. I have never had need for long paragraphs or document-specific dictionary. But then, just because I do not need them, does not mean that they are not valid enhancement requests. I only acknowledge that someone might care about them and see LO as inferior product. > Or did you mean something else? *I* meant something else. Not sure about Urmas. What I was talking about, is simple use case: I write this sci-fi novel in English. One of characters is named "Valtirix". Since "Valtirix" is not English word (after all, he's from planet "Betighyy"), spell-checker will underline it. But this is valid word in my novel, so I do not want that. I can add it to custom dictionary, fine. But again, I do not want to put "Valtirix" by mistake anywhere in letter to my grandpa. So, in documents other than my novel, I want this word to be underlined, because it is not correct. What I am talking about, is custom dictionary that might be laid on top of language dictionary and enabled on the fly. And, as I said, I, personally, never actually needed that, so it might be that LO is already capable of doing this. But if it is not, then this is valid enhancement request. -- Best regards Mirosław Zalewski -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
