Description: Prior to this update, LibreOffice would allow adding a word to its dictionary via the dropdown menu that populates upon a right-click. It does not do so anymore. Now, I have to highlight "incorrect (but actually correct)" word, go to Tools, go to Spelling, and add it from there. As a frequent writer and user of LibreOffice Writer, I find this change to increase my completion time and decrease my satisfaction with your product. LibreOffice already comes with a quite limited dictionary, which means that adding new words to the dictionary is a somewhat frequent task I must complete. Please just re-add "Add to Dictionary" at the bottom of the dropdown menu when I right-click a word. Actual Results: N/A Expected Results: N/A Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: I did try adding a new dictionary to see if it would at least increase the amount of recognized words, but this action corrupted LibreOffice, and I had to reset my profile.
Created attachment 200407 [details] Screenshot 24.8.6 If is this option, maybe you have modified inadvertently the context menu.

Version 25.2.1.2 Build ID: d3abf4aee5fd705e4a92bba33a32f40bc4e56f49 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 11 x86_64 UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US; UI: en-US Calc: threaded When trying to reproduce this bug, I discovered that if you highlight the word and right-click, the 'Add to Dictionary' option is not available, but if you just right-click on the word without highlighting the whole word, the option is available. Not sure if this is intentional behavior or not.
Thank you for reporting the bug. I can not reproduce the bug in Version: 25.2.3.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: bbb074479178df812d175f709636b368952c2ce3 CPU threads: 12; OS: Windows 11 X86_64 (10.0 build 26100); UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded
Thank you for reporting the bug. I can confirm that the reported behavior change between the two installs below. Right clicking (without highlighting and selecting) a misspelled word under version 25.2 provides a menu which includes "Add to Dictionary". However, this option is no longer present under version 25.8. Version details follow below.
