Description: I - select a misspelled word; - select "AutoCorrect options..." from "Tools" menu LibreOffice - display a window containing the fields "Replace" and "With"; - "Replace" field is empty; - "With" field contains the misspelled word. I would expect the opposite behaviour: - "Replace" field containing the misspelled word; - "With" field empty, so I can enter the proper spelling of the word. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Select a (misspelled) word 2.Select Tools > AutoCorrect > AutoCorrect Options... Actual Results: "AutoCorrect Options" windows opens; fields are wrongly filled: - "with" contains the misspelled word; - "Replace" field is empty. Expected Results: "AutoCorrect Options" windows opens; Fields should: - "Replace" contains the misspelled word; - "with" be empty.

Created attachment 142702 [details] "AutoCorrect Options..." window with wrongly filled fields.
I confirm the behaviour, but I' not sure, if this is a bug. If you have a word with right spelling, you would expect, that "Replace" is empty and "With" is filled. And how could LO know if it is a misspelled or just an unknown word?
this is not a bug. I reported the same thing years ago but I was told that it was an intended behaviour. see Bug 78217 - Autocorrect replacement table: selected text is copied in "With" field rather than "Replace" field *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 78217 ***
