Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 39704
Spellchecker Languages Setting Changes Spontaneously
Last modified: 2013-02-24 20:42:39 UTC
Background This has happened several times and I can now detect and work-around it at will but the problem must be fixed. I am using the English (Canada) dictionary with other dictionaries also installed (not deliberately by me, but I assume by default). The problem occurred with version 1.1.2, causing me to upgrade to 1.1.4 to see if it would be fixed. I tried removing 1.1.4 completely and then re-installing and the problem presisted. Details The "default languages for documents" setting of the "Options - Language Settings - Languages" dialog spontaneously changes from "English (Canada)" to "none". It is detectable because I have the AutoSpellcheck feature turned "on" and obvious spelling mistakes are not noticed. I go to the Languages dialog, switch the setting back to "English (Canada)" and everything is fine again. Other Info I have tried to note any patterns in my usage that may be related to the problem - things like, choosing suggestions for misspellings, or NOT choosing suggestions, whatever. I have not noticed any patterns.
