Description larionenkoruslan@gmail.com 2018-12-18 23:29:56 UTC
Spellcheck highlight(red line) doesn't update if user change(fix spell) some word and move cursor to an other word. Space or new line entering is required to update spellcheck highlight.

Steps to reproduce:
Enter "Dog and cat"
Change to "Dogr and cat"
Move cursor from "Dogr" to an other word using mouse or arrow buttons.


Actual result:
"Dogr" isn't highlighted as incorrect word. User should enter space or new line after Dogr word to update highlight.

Expected result(works well in Microsoft Word Online):
"Dogr" should be highlighted as incorrect word.

Possible it is not bug and it is just specific behavior. 
But I think LO should update spellcheck highlight dynamically(without entering space or new line after specific words).

ah, its right there in the commit message.

"Notably this means if the user just moves the cursor out of the wrongly spelled word, it won't be underlined yet, but that appears a minor issue, and checking when the cursor leaves the word appears too hard to implement"

Dear larionenkoruslan@gmail.com,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
