I'm still having problems getting the English spellchecker to run in a
localized version of LO (see
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64004) but while I was
fiddling around with that today, I came across another issue. If you
open the addon manager, even if you drag the window across the whole
width of the screen, many items have descriptions that don't fit on the
screen (see screenshot here http://www.akerbeltz.org/sealach/dicts.jpg)
The solutions that spring to mind include:
- making the text wrap
- introducing a length limit
- and/or making the width of the window adjust according to the length
of the longest string
- ... after a certain letter count with a hyperlink
I'm just putting these ideas out there, you know I'd love to do patches
myself but my brain just doesn't want to function that way :/
Also, while showing someone how to install LO and the spellchecker,
having waxed lyrical about it, I got egg on my face because the latest
oxt I uploaded did not work because I had filled the name field but left
the extension .oxt off. This is seriously annoying, not because I got
egg on my face but if the system requires me to manually type out the
extension, it should either prompt or give an error message when the
user provides an unknown or missing extension (in terms of LO extensions).
Cheers
Michael
