Description Gabor Kelemen (allotropia) 2024-11-19 15:08:18 UTC
Created attachment 197688 [details]
Spell check items in Tools menu are disabled, misspelled word is not underlined

See attachment 197685 [details] for an example

In a read-only document, when a section is editable, it is not possible to run spell check in the editable section.

1. Set the attachment 197685 [details] document as read only on the file system, open it
2. When it is opened as read only, click in the yellow section, which is editable
3. Type something, then open the Tools menu
-> Spelling, Automatic Spell Check items are disabled, spelling is not checked in the editable section

I was able to replicate this. I am not sure if it is a bug though, because I believe spell check is generally disabled in read only mode.
