Description Alberto Salvia Novella 2021-06-17 16:30:46 UTC

Description:
Because otherwise spellcheck omissions aren't preserved between sessions.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch the spelling corrector (F7)
2. Ignore some misspelled words
3. Save the document and exit
4. Repeat

Actual Results:
The words marked as ignored are again set as misspelled.

Expected Results:
Those words to be marked as not using any language, so the omission survives sessions.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Why you do not add these misspelled words to your personal dictionary?
Is there some reason to ignore a misspelled word in a document and do not in another?

Status has been set to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested information has been provided.

Best regards. JBF

Because that way the spelling correction only applies to the local computer.

Unfortunately this is not working. Setting the language to None is understood as hack rather a (to be implemented) method to suppress spell-checking. See also bug 143066 comment 10 (and references).

The workflow issue has been reported a couple of times, though.
