You have 4.1.3.2 rc listed as a possible version but I cannot find it to download and test from the usual place of the LO site.

link - bookmarked.

I can confirm that the bug exists in RC2. Also, the full stop (period)
after the text in the top box should be removed.

Still present in 5.1.4.2
Comment 11 Olivier R. 2017-01-17 04:41:23 UTC
This is not a bug.
This is the replacement field that the grammar checker fills with suggestions.

As the grammar checker wants to replace two spaces with one, the field is just the character " ": an invisible space.

If you type: "a office", the suggestion will be "an office".

It works as expected.

So, if you want to modify the text with a label different than the replacement text, this is an enhancement request.

Adding needsUXEval to find out if design team can help with what should be showed additionally in the context menu.
Comment 13 Heiko Tietze 2021-06-28 12:30:28 UTC
Would expect a hint like "(Replace '  ' by ' ')" in this case instead of showing white-space. But it seems to me totally up to the language tool.
