Description Luca Sardelli 2018-06-13 13:21:27 UTC

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.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

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
