Hello!
I am in Impress and spellcheck doesn't work.
I go to Options, Language settings and the default language is
Finnish. Can anyone explain to me why it would be Finnish when
everything else on my system is in English?!?
anyway, I click the drop down menu and select "English(USA)" and
Openoffice restarts. Spellcheck still doesn't work and Finish is
still set as the defualt language.
Thanks!
BTW. Please CC me
Are you running the Quickstarter? If so, exit from it before changing
the language setting. Assuming you are running Windows, the
Quickstarter is represented by a small OpenOffice.org logo icon in the
System Tray. Right click it and choose Exit. Then start Impress,
change the language setting and quit Impress. The change should now
"stick" after restarting the Quickstarter.
Alternatively, have you somehow managed to set the language to Finnish
in the *default presentation template*? Open a new presentation and go
to File>Templates>Organise. Choose Templates in the bottom right box
and click Organise. Select My Templates and click Commands. If you see
"Reset default template", choose it and close Impress after clicking
Close/Apply/OK as necessary. When you create a new presentation now,
the language should be English.
If neither of these works then, sorry, I have no more ideas; perhaps
someone else here can help. *Please*.
Hello!
Thanks a lot for the replies everyone! I am using Ubuntu 9.04 with OO
3.0.1. I am not using quickstart. spellcheck only works on blank
documents. Spellcheck does NOT work on any of the themed presentations
that come with OO. I never even used OO before this, so the problem
couldn't be due to my error.
Harold: I tried what you said, but only got as far as to "choose
Templates in the bottom right box". I did not see an "Organize" button,
so I was stuck.
Thanks again.
Also, do I just hit reply? or should I also CC people who replied to me?
This is the first time I used a mailing list.
