Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 67261
AutoCorrect gets triggerd only by <Space>, punctuation marks don't work anymore
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:42:56 UTC
In version 2.0.2, if I key in "(c)," (without the quotes), the AutoCorrect function will replace it with "©,". In 2.0.3 however, no replacement is made. "(c)," will remain as "(c),". The same goes to all the items in the AutoCorrect Replace list. Is this a bug? If not, what is the rational behind such a design?
Reassigned to SBA.
I totally confirm this issue in Brazilian Portuguese version. I used to use the AutoCorrect to type fast using abreviations. I could set "cns" to be corrected to "constitution" so, instead of writing "What is a constitution? It is a constitution." I could simple type "What is a cns? It is a cns." and it would be automatically corrected. But now it's not possible anymore because the word is only corrected if afetr it I type a SPACE. So, to have the word "constitution?" I would have to type cns + SPACE + BACKSPACE + "?". Please fix this!!

This bug also happens in 2.0.4.
As said in issue 70411 I can confirm this annoying bug. This makes AutoCorrect unusable for me. Both 2.0.3 and 2.0.4 have this bug, 2.0.2 was ok.

Can we have this set as a higher priority? This was a feature that works fine in 2.0.2. Hope to see it working again in 2.1.

SBA: Only the space key triggers the AutoCorrection. Regression since OOo 2.03. Set keyword regression, adjusting summary. SBA->OS: I guess this is something for Karl. If you can/must you give him further hints, please do so. Thx.
SBA->TL: According to OS, this was introduced by CWS tl19, so it is a side-effect of issue i61994, issue i61397 or issue i54913. Please proceed.

SBA->TL: As discussed, please fix for OOo 2.1. Set target and dependency to issue 71255.
SBA: Set target.
regression -> raising prio to P2.

Fixed in CWS tl33. Files changed: svx: - svcacorr.hxx - svcacorr.cxx sw: - edtwin.cxx (just added to build it anew because of incompatible change)
Added . , ; : ? to the list of characters usable with auto-correction. (Thus they will no longer function with input-sequence checking though... Don't know if they are missing there now.)
pb: I moved SvxIsAutoCorrectChar() -> static sal_Bool SvxAutoCorrect::IsAutoCorrectChar(). Files changed: /svx/inc/svxacorr.hxx 1.17.234.2 /svx/source/editeng/svxacorr.cxx 1.54.76.2 /sw/source/ui/docvw/edtwin.cxx 1.136.80.2
pb -> sba: please verify, thx.
SBA: Verified in CWS tl33.
SBA: OK in OOE680m5 Build 9093. Closed.
