Downstream bug may be found at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/220703 1) lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Release: 11.04 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer libreoffice-writer: Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 Version table: *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer is when one adds the word "extrusión" to the custom dictionary, AutoSpellcheck does not underline the words "Extrusión" and "EXTRUSIÓN" as misspelled. 4) What happens instead is AutoSpellcheck does underline these case variations and suggests it to be the lowercased version. WORKAROUND: Add each case variant.
Not a Bug, but a feature? Seems to be INVALID without evidences for the expected behavior: 1. German Wort "man" is correct, bug "Man" would be wrong, so I doubt that assumption "... does not underline the words "Extrusión" ..." from original report is correct, why should spellcheck accept misspelled word "Man"? IMHO assumption in report only is correct for unchecked preference "Check Capitalization". 2. The "EXTRUSIÓN" problem might be something different. The option "Check uppercase words" seems to mean: - unchecked option: No uppercase word will be marked as misspelled, even nonsense words like "GANOIRIEJKTGTKJTRINZROSAAAAAAAAAA" - Checked option: onl words known in lowercase or with leading uppercase first letter will be accepted as correct in complete uppercase So I agree with the assumption, but that seems to be completely broken in 3.4.1, I will file a separate report after some more investigation. @Christopher: Can you please add some information concerning my question in 1.?
Rainer Bielefeld: Unchecking "Check Capitalization" has no impact on this issue. In Microsoft Office Word 2003 (11.5604.6505), if one adds extrusión in the Custom Dictionary, Extrusión and EXTRUSIÓN are not flagged as misspelled.

Of course programmers are busy with more serious issues, as colorful sheet labels or new footer separators. One may wonder, do they use their product themselves?
