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
Comment 2 Alberto Salvia Novella 2021-08-11 21:43:09 UTC 
Because that way the spelling correction only applies to the local computer.
Comment 3 Heiko Tietze 2023-10-17 11:15:39 UTC 
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.
