Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 116765
Spell checker should change mouse pointer immediately
Last modified: 2011-02-02 10:37:14 UTC
The OOo spell checker runs quite slowly. When resolving its findings and the next error is some pages down, the dialog box freezes and doesn't show any change for some time after clicking on Ignore or Change. So the user is unsure whether the click has been recognized at all and is prompted to click again -- possibly doing the wrong thing with the next found error. Therefore, the spell checker should change the mouse pointer immediately to the sandclock as a visual feedback before proceeding. A throbber or, better yet, a progress indicator would be perfect.
Same root cause as issue 116764. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 116764 ***
