@László Németh The Hunspell expert. Feature or bug. Looks like a bug to me. Outside the scope of this, I would also expect a sensible suggestion for "He^llo" But noticing more spell checkers having trouble with that.
The desired behavior can be set from the user in Tools > Options > Language Settings > Writing Aids. Option "Check words with numbers" in section "Options". No bug.
(In reply to Regina Henschel from comment #3) > The desired behavior can be set from the user in Tools > Options > Language > Settings > Writing Aids. > Option "Check words with numbers" in section "Options". Thanks for that :-). So not a developers 'fault'. Let's carry on the next station. UX. As this is of course not something I don't let go easily. Even though there appears to be not 'common' setting for this. I'm still a proponent for dialog to configure LibreOffice. At for 'more' common disputable settings.. to make it more accessible and raise awareness of the existence. The scattered all over the place; buried deep within dialogs. It's common that Benjamins like me are not able to find it; realize it's a setting (and call it a bug) Some suggestions: * Markdown auto-correct * Check words with numbers exception * Autocomplete [Someone decided to disable it by default] * Highlighting or shading * Tabbed or Toolbar * Autocaption * Grid enable/disable Maybe even show it at first launch. As there is already a debate about a configuration 'wizard' related to the UI (toolbar/tabbed)
The options under writing aids are also relevant for the auto spellcheck function. That means, it needs a central place for configuration. We have a big button in the spell checking dialog to get to these options (without any distraction). Words with 1numbers at the beginning are easy to spot; and you may understand why a corrections is not done without reading the documentation. Putting all together I think every additional feedback has not much benefit on usability but clutters the UI and performs worse than today => NAB
