Description: I often write texts in Office Writer in foreign languages (and of course in other modules). Recently during spell checking, an unknown word was found and I wanted to add it immediately to the standard (Spanish) dictionary since the word was correct. It should be possible doing it by selecting the word, pressing the RMB (right mouse button) and in the following menu should appear the option 'Add it to a dictionary…' and then you should be able to select a meaningful dictionary. Today it is too complicate to go through extra - spell checking - new window… Steps to Reproduce: 1.Spell check 2.An unknown word is found 3.Add it immediately to a specific (selectable) dictionary Actual Results: The actual way to add a word works, but takes to much time. Expected Results: RMB and in the opening window the option i.e. 'Add to dictionary…' should appear. In a new window the desired dictionary should be selected. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Everything is described before.
I'm not sure I understand your description of the bug. With my LO 6.3.5 on Windows 10, English UI, I can press RMB on the redlined word I want to add, then in the pop-up menu, there is "Add to Dictionary" item, moving mouse cursor onto it will reveal more menu items of names of dictionaries that you can add the word to. Are you saying this is too complicated? Or you are not seeing these pop-up menus that I am using?

Hello, I use LibreOffice 6.4.2.2 on Mac OS X and there I dont see after pressing RMB a string 'Add to Dictionary' or similar. It's available in MS-Word, as I use it there sometimes, running on both, Windows and Mac OS X. Best regards /Reinhard
Which version of macOS are you on? I can right click red-underlined words and add to dictionary just fine If you select and highlight the text you don't get the option when right-clicking Is this what you're doing?

Hello, I work on Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6. I wrote now a German word in a Spanish text. The word became red-underlined. Then it was possible to add it to a (selectable) dictionary. As you already mentioned, if the red-underlined word is selected and highlighted I can’t add it to a dictionary. Maybe I selected unknown words in the past and LO-Writer didn’t let me add it to a dictionary. From my point of view the issue is mow solved, you could close the bug, which really isn’t a bug. Best regards /Reinhard
