Thank you for your report, John. I am pretty confident this has already been fixed for version 7.5.1. Can you please test a master version to confirm? Here: https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html Thank you! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 152738 ***
Hi I downloaded Win-x86_64@tb77-TDF 2023-02-16 03:28:54 The result is exactly the same as with the earlier version. The spell check locks on the first paragraph and the ignore etc tabs are not functional. Essentially spell check does not work at all. :) John
Created attachment 185454 [details] Writer - latest Beta abc failure - continued language is English (australian) I also 'tested' abc on a number of other documents. Some odt and some docx. The issue appears on almost all. ! Let me know if you would like more examples. :) John
I've used your attachment 185454 [details] and could use the spellcheck using versions 7.5.1 and 7.6 alpha0+, on both Windows and Linux, using the Australian English spellcheck. The only word that was caught was "viridian". I could use all the dialog's buttons. - Can you please test in Safe Mode?

Setting back to unconfirmed, it might be that bug 152738 wasn't completely fixed. Will mention it there. Please share the information from Help > About LibreOffice.

(In reply to Stéphane Guillou (stragu) from comment #5) > - Can you please test in Safe Mode? Help > Restart in Safe Mode. Sorry, just realised you did test in safe mode. I tested some more and reported in bug 153931 that I can see some buggy behaviour with the dialog stuck in ignore / resume loops, and concluding the spellcheck prematurely. Is that what you mean by "spell check locks on the first paragraph and the ignore etc tabs are not functional", John ? Or do you see something different? It would be great if you could provide precise steps to reproduce the issue with the document you provided.

Not necessarily the first paragraph but early. Looks like it hits a sentence [that could have a context type error] and stops on that. Not on a specific word. Close is the only way out. Ignore is not available. 12th short paragraph stop below on page 1. [316 words in]
*** Bug 153931 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Confirmed. Copied steps from duplicate's comment https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153931#c6 : 1. Open attachment 185825 [details] 2. Start spellcheck (F7), language is English (USA) (I have the green tick) 3. Click "Ignore Once" for "outdented", it ignores successfully. Also click "Ignore once" for "Gravatar". Result: stuck in an "Ignore once" -> "Resume" loop. Issue is inconsistent. Other behaviours witnessed: - Dialog reports that spellcheck is completed even though many more words remain underlined as misspelled - Spellcheck goes through the whole process without any issue. I can't figure out why I can't reliably reproduce.

László, following your work on bug 152738, any idea what might be happening here?

Thank you for looking into it, László! Unfortunately, I can not reproduce this elusive issue anymore, so can't test the fix... Maybe you have more consistent steps? John and Mike, please test a master build that contains this fix (in a day or so) and report back if spellcheck works as expected : https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html Thank you!

Likely not only the spelling dictionary, but the Lightproof English module must be enabled. My patch only reverts the problematic part of the commit, which resulted the regression. In my build it solved the problem, so with Caolán's patch, likely for the others.

(In reply to John Glennie from comment #21) > Created attachment 186273 [details] > version tests OK The version you used does not include the fixes by Caolán and László, so it looks you also have trouble reproducing the issue.
