I believe there has been some work on the Spell Checking system since then, but I could be wrong. I use to use the OOo extension that changed to a different "system", but I stopped doing that in the 3.5.x series/line.

To be honest, you might see some improvements with the 3.6.5 version of the Debian installs.

There are some items in the Tools>Options section about how and what is used for the spell checking. You might want to "play around" with those settings to see if things improve for you. Words with numbers and Capitals lettering are listed there in the options for spell checking. Depending on what is installed on your system, the options may be different than mine.

I came from OOo 1.x era for my first non-MSO package since I switch to MSO-95. I started using LO with its first offering.

Your description of the "killing of manual formatting" is something I have never seen. You are saying that you have formatted words in things like Bold, Italic, and other text and paragraph formatting styles, and the spell checking system is changing them as its works?

Weird.  I would be upset as well.

Since 3.5.3 is "old" for a LO version, maybe you should download and install the 3.6.5 Debian version of LO from the web pages. If the problem still is there than it is a matter for the developers need to deal with through the "bug" process.

Sometimes the renaming of the .libreoffice hidden folder will help, since it resets the user profile, which sometimes gets messed up and caused some "weird" errors. Sometimes weird printer errors are caused by the profile being "corrupted" in some manner. Sometimes checking or unchecking options in the Tools>Options menus might fix the issue. It did for a weird duplex problem for some printers.

Since the "issue" you are having has been with the OOo/LO projects for that long, you might want to make a list of all of the extensions and add-ons you are using and then including that with a bug report to the devs. As I stated, I use to use a OOo extension that worked with the spell checking system and "modified it" for more options than OOo and LO had in those early days. Now I do not.

I really hope the developers, via the bug reporting system, can help you.

Hello web-m, hello list,

Thank you for your reply.

I am using / have been using different Linux Debian Versions and OO from 2.*
on up to LO 3.5.3 and I have seen no different behaviour in the grammar and
spelling checker.

If I insert/delete a letter outside the red marking, the next word to be
corrected ist only partially marked red. i.e.
cONFUXION (capitals = red marked)
LO might offer as a better replacement "confusion", clicking on change gives
cconfusion

A paragraph might be formatted as "standard". Some words are in addition hard
formatted as bold. As soon as I do some manual correction outside the
red-marked words, the checker starts over checking that paragraph an killing
all hard formats.

  > > Hi folks,
I am using the spelling and grammar checker quite often. However, there
are some nasty drawbacks (in all versions of OO and LO I know):

- any manual correction outside the (red marked) word will result in
either reevaluation of the whole paragraph, loss of hard formats in that
paragraph and/or a shift in the red mark of the follwing words to be
corrected. This means, the red formatted text might cover only part of
the word to be corrected. Thus, correction will fail.

Yours

I have not i\encountered this "partial" covering of the word with the
red markings.

Please tell up which version of LibreOffice you are using and what is
you Operating System.

The "correction that fails" - do you mean the failure of the spell
checking system to correctly pick up the word, or are you talking about
failure to pick up the grammar issues?

"Loss of hard formatting" in the paragraph?  could you give an example
please.
