Description Nicolas Christener 2019-03-18 15:46:08 UTC
Description:
It seems the iOS app doesn't check the spelling automatically. I can't find the possibility to set the language for the document (or paragaph).

Maybe there is no dictionary available?

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create/open a document in the iOS app
2. Select text and try to set the language for the given text by clicking the menu entry "Extras > Language > For the whole page"

Actual Results:
There is no language I can choose from and wrong spelled words are not "redlined".

Expected Results:
A user should be able to choose the language for the text.
Misspelled words should be marked as such (redlining).


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Confirmed, I presume because no dictionaries are bundled with the app currently.
Comment 3 Nicolas Christener 2019-03-19 06:26:34 UTC
For my usecase, the following dictionary would be relevant:

* de_CH (most important)
  https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/german-de-ch-frami-dictionaries

* fr_FR
  https://github.com/LibreOffice/dictionaries/tree/master/fr_FR

* en_GB (or en_US)

The app now uses the system spell-checking dictionaries. Those will have to be enough.
