Bug ID: 174134
Summary: Feature Request: Context menu for spellcheck traps
could open on-line dictionary
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Scene: In the creation of a specialized document, many specialized words are
encountered that a local dictionary cannot fully encompass.
Proposal: When the spellcheck detects an unrecognized word, right-click opens a
context menu. The proposal is, with minimal coding, that menu could include an
option to open the preferred on-line dictionary in the preferred browser with
that unrecognized word.
Technical: The mechanics are already in place to open an HTTP link found in the
document. The change would use existing functions. Choice of dictionaries could
be set in the preference settings.
User convenience: The improvement in productivity would be considerable:
1. Encounter the spellcheck incident
2. Check the spelling with the preferred on-line dictionary
3. Confirm or correct the word, maybe add to local dictionary
