Description JEROME BARBAZA 2014-09-07 15:16:57 UTC
Dans libreoffice-classeur, lorsque une faute d'orthographe ne se situe pas sur la première ligne d'une cellule, le menu contextuel n'affiche pas de proposition.

(cas où la cellule possède un retour à la ligne automatique et que le texte est plus long que la largeur de la cellule)

Quick translation:
In Calc, when a spelling error isn't located in the first line of a cell, the contextual menue doesn't dislay any suggestions.

(in the case when the cell has an automatic newline and the text is longer than the width of the cell)

I can confirm this bug with some extension.

When a cell, containing text longer than the width of the cell and automatic newline is on, there is no suggestion for the misspelled words in the second line when right clicking on them. It always occurs.

The same problem appears even in the 'first' line when there is only one line of text but the height of the cell is enough for two lines. In this case the automatic newline is off!

Hi

Bug still present en 6.0.2 and 5.2 on Linux, I try on 5.0 on Windows same problem.

The way to skirt the problem is to put the text on the top, else the problem is present if the text is in the middle or the bottom of the cell, or a space is present before the text.

Actualy see on 5.2 in kubuntu 14.04, 6.02 in kubuntu 16.04 and 5.0 on windows 7.

I could not replicate this. I used attachment 133713 [details] and tested cell A6 which looks to be about two lines high. I made it larger (maybe 4-5 times) and still the spell check suggestions were always provided.
