Description jasonk 2004-02-23 03:40:10 UTC 
A block of capitalized words is not spell checked at all, but it reports back as
complete (ok).  However if the case of the paragraph is changed to lower the
spell checker finds errors just fine.  Using redhat 9.  Here is a sample block
of capitalized text with 6 mistakes that the spell checker will miss:

PRECLOSES

MAKE SURE BASKETS ARE LINED WITH PAPER

The bug is replicated in both doc and sxw formats in OOo 1.1.x. This is similar
to  issue 18737. This appears to be the bug in OOo 1.1.x.

There's an "check uppercase words" option that will, when set, also check 
words in all uppercase (just tried with m122). So I'm not sure this is a bug. 
Maybe that option should be on by default?
Comment 4 lars 2005-11-17 18:56:24 UTC 
if check uppercase words is enabled that text is checked. so this issue can be 
closed as INVALID.
