Hi :)
I thought most people that had trouble with spell-checkers fixed it by just downloading and
installing one of the dictionaries from the NA (North American) Dvd Project? I think they are
oxt's so just downloading and then double-clicking on the downloaded file.
Ubuntu is another operating system. Win7 is an operating system. Xp was/is. OS X is. Each
has it's own advantages and disadvantages.
Regards form
Tom :)

I know many users that have Win7 and their LO package works fine.
I know of users that have this spelling issue with Vista and XP.
It is not an issue that can be easily replicated, since only a few
people seem to have trouble with the spell checking system. If the
issue cannot be easy replicated, it becomes very hard to find what code
or combination of code is causing the problem on only certain systems.
It could be something as weird as some problem in the Win7 registry that
is corrupted that could be causing the problem. I have to run a
checking system every so ofter to fix the registry errors that happen on
my various XP and Vista systems I deal with from time to time [mine and
others].
Oh well, that is why I have been running Ubuntu since 2009 on my main
desktop and on various servers and laptops before then.

Hi :)
I think just try exactly what you have described.
1. Just save the file
2. close the file
3. double-click to open it
4. click on the spell-check button
If step 3 opens the file in anything other than LibreOffice then
1. close the file again
2. right-click on the file's icon, a menu should appear
3. in that right-click menu choose "Open with ..."
4. Hopefully LibreOffice Writer should be in there. If not then at the bottom there is
usually something like "more programs". LibreOffice's various programs/modules (Writer, Calc
etc) should be in there.
If that doesn't work or starts looking far too complicated then
1. Open LibreOffice but do
File - Close
to get back to the LO splash-screen that offers a choice of which module to open.
2. Instead of opening a module just drag the file's icon into the LO window
Probably the 1st set of 4 steps will do the trick. The rest is just in case it's being
awkward. I have forgotten which OS you are using but they are all pretty much the same except
Mac. However, there are slight differences so please let us know which OS you are using to
get better detail. Windows? Xp, Win7? Ubuntu, Mageia, Fedora openSUSE or some other flavour
of Gnu&Linux? OS X or other Mac? It seems unlikely you are using a BSD (unless you count
Mac) but if you are there might still be someone on this list using it although i think they
tend to go off to the devs list fairly quickly or use their own down-stream forums/lists.

Tom :)

Hello,
Le 11/10/2012 02:22, Lostsoul a écrit :
Ok using Libre version 3.6.2.2 and my auto spell doesn t and even worse when
i click on manual spell check all i get is the stupid question do i want to
start at the top; i click yes
I think that question is not stupid. Some people just want to start
spellchecking at the current location. YMMV.
but then i get the boot telling me its all
finished and it isn t ! ?
So whats that crap all about and how do i fix it ? ? H E L P waiting . .
Check that in Format / Characters the language is defined as you wish.
If it is defined as [none] no wonder you get the behaviour you're meeting.
The best way to fix the undefined language is to set the underlying
paragraph style:
(the paragraph being selected or the insertion point being in the faulty
paragraph)
1. F11 (or Format / Styles and formatting). A new toolbar shows up.
2. Make sure the Paragraph styles list is selected (first toolbutton
from the left)
2. Right-Click the selected style name
3. Select Change
4. In the Font page, go to Language list. Set the language to the
desired value.
5. Validate
And you're set!
Note: I'm using an FR interface. The menus and options names above are
freely translated.
HTH,
