OpenSUSE :: Thesaurus Not Working In OpenOffice?

Jul 23, 2009

I just realized my Thesaurus function is inactive. Ctrl F7 does nothing, and on the pull down menu Tools>Language the Thesaurus option is greyed out.

I went to Tools>Options>Writing Aids and under the Language Modules, Thesaurus is listed but no dictionary box to click. No sub module listed under Thesaurus.

There a spell check dictionary listed and marked -- Hunspell Checker.

When I go to the OOo extension page I see no Thesaurus files to download?

How can I get the Thesaurus working as without it Writer is going to be pretty useless. I am using the GB dictionary.

I tried upgrading to OOo 3.1 but that hasn't helped either.

Ubuntu :: Spell Check For Evolution?

May 27, 2010

Just a little thing to make my Lynx Lucid installation perfect

I find it annoying when using Aspell in Evolution to have to check through the whole text before I arrive on the word that I need to check. Of course Aspell goes through all the headers in the email etc.

Is there any other alternative, or way of setting up the spelling preferences to make it possible to highlight a word and check it directly (like for instance Thunderbird does on other not to be mentioned systems)?

Ubuntu :: 9.10 - Spell Check Of GEdit Does Not Work

Feb 9, 2010

I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 (netbook remix) in italian. The spell checker of gEdit does not work anymore as it used to, neither in italian nor in english. It actually sort of works, but the vocabulary is really limited; it cannot recognize words as simple as 'points' and 'starting'.

I have the following packages installed:
Code:
aspell
aspell-en
aspell-it
libaspell15
libgtkspell0
myspell-en-gb
myspell-it
language-pack-en
language-pack-en-base
language-pack-it
language-pack-it-base
language-pack-gnome-en
language-pack-gnome-en-base
language-pack-gnome-it
language-pack-gnome-it-base
language-support-en
language-support-it
language-support-writing-en
language-support-writing-it
What am I missing?

Ubuntu :: Spell Check Broken In Oo 3 Writer?

Feb 12, 2010

The spell checker on my installation of open office 3.0 writer in Ubuntu 9.04 amd64 doesn't work. I have been through the options route, following the buit in help and set to english. That didn't work. I have been online, using the link from inside the program, and put a new version of the dictionary on my desktop and added it and that didn't work either. I have also reinstalled the whole thing via synaptic and that didn't work either. Using abword in the meantime but would rather have open office working again. In all three cases the gui seems to think all is well but when I check a page of garbage words am told that the check is complete. I can not use the enable tab as writer seems to think that the dictionary is present and enabled anyway. Does anyone know what may be wrong in my setup or have a fix for this?

Ubuntu :: Evolution Spell Check Broken?

Jan 12, 2011

Sometime earlier this week, after an Update Manager update, spell check in Evolution broke.

It started underlining all words, even simple ones like "the".

I Googled around and found this article: [URL]

First, I did as recommended: 'Then go to "Edit | Preferences | Composer Preferences | Spell Checking", and enable the available languages." I found a list of languages and found that the USA version of English was enabled.

It then says, "You can also check gnome-enabled dictionaries by using gconf-editor. The GConf key /GNOME/Spell/language should contain a space-separated list of the languages you have enabled (i.e. en-US es for US english and Spanish)."

No such key found in GConf.

I followed the next instruction ("you could also try the hard way: Shut Evolution down by closing Evolution and then using the command evolution --force-shutdown. After that, run gconftool-2 --unset /GNOME/Spell/mtime.") which I did, gfcontool-2 --unset /GNOME/Spell/mtime returned with no error or comment.

But now, spell check isn't working at all, even misspelled words are not flagged, and "Edit | Preferences | Composer Preferences | Spell Checking" shows no languages to select from.

Finally, the instructions say, "If all this does not help, remove the file $HOME/.gconf/GNOME/Spell/%gconf.xml so all your spellchecking settings get deleted. The file gets recreated and according to some users on the Evolution mailing list, spellchecking should work again"

I found no "Spell" directory under "$HOME/.gconf"

I'm not a terrible speller, but do miss the okashunal werd, so having the spell checker working again would be useful.

Ubuntu :: Chromium Spell Check Doesn't Work?

Aug 21, 2010

With the language set to either English (United States) or English (United Kingdom) ALL words are underlined in red, as though they are misspelled. I have ended up turning off the spell checker as it is so annoying. Checking Google it seems this is a know problem but there doesn't seem to be a solution for it.

Fedora :: Gedit Spell Check Broken?

Dec 28, 2009

I am trying to check spelling in a text document, but gedit (v. 2.28.0) reports every word as incorrect. When I check the "autospell" option, it highlights the entire document. When I try to set the language, the language list is empty. I do have aspell and aspell-en installed, but gedit seems to ignore them. aspell works fine from the command line. The SpellChecker plugin is installed. Anyone has an idea what might be missing? Some env variable is not set correctly? Any other leads? (I am on Fedora 12).

I wouldn't be asking, but I'm tuning this up for someone who isn't command-line-knowledgeable.

General :: Software To Spell Check .po Files?

Mar 17, 2011

I am translating some po-files and I would like to run a spell checker over them. I have Ubuntu 10.10 and use gtranslator. As far as I know, gtranslator can't spellcheck the whole file.

I tried ispell: $ ispell lordsawar-0.2.0-pre4.de.po - this doesn't work, as English and German strings, as well as some programming-relevant comments appear in the .po-file.

Do you know any program running on Ubuntu which can spell check po-files?

Software :: Customizing Epiphany Spell Check And Tabs?

Jan 9, 2011

So the more I use GNOME the more I fall in love with it. Including the default GNOME web browser, epiphany. Its clean and fast and that's the most important thing to me.

There are at least two things I'd like to customize that I can't seem to figure out.

The first is I'd like to see if there is a way to make epiphany spell check text boxes automatically, preferably like the default in many modern applications that it does as you type and underlines things that are mispeilled, but I'd deal with some sort of "right click to spell check" or something like that.

Secondly, I'd like to tell Epiphany that when a hyperlinks directs to OPEN IN NEW WINDOW that it opens in new tab instead.

I want the Dutch hunspell dictionary, but you fill out the right language for the language support you want: # yum install hunspell-nl

Software :: OpenOffice.org Calc Formula To Check If Day Is Last Day Of Month

Jan 19, 2009

I've got a CD which does the monthly compounding on the last day of every month instead of every 30 days. The bank gave me a print-out (of course), but I'd like to make my own Calc spreadsheet too. My question is: How do I check whether a certain day is the last day of the month? In other words, I'm looking for something that returns TRUE if it's the last day of the month and FALSE if it isn't. I'm using OpenOffice.org 2.4.1 on Ubuntu 8.10.

Ubuntu :: StarDict Thesaurus Location On Sourceforge?

Dec 14, 2010

I just installed StarDict and so far I love it.I got it from the repos and then installed a dictionary from here, where their site directed me: http:[url]....I went back to their site to look for a thesaurus and found one on this page: http://stardict.sourceforge.net/Dict...w.dict.org.php

When you click on the tarball link for "Moby Thesaurus II" it takes you to a sourceforge page with many different versions of StarDict itself, and not the dictionary/thesaurus package.tell me if I'm just missing it on the sourceforge page, or does anyone know a place to download a good thesaurus for StarDict?

Feb 19, 2010

What I can't seem to find in the repositories is software for Dictionary Definitions and a Thesaurus - in another distro there is what is called "Online Dictionary" (which includes synonyms) and another distro there is what is called "WordNet";So, I would like to know the name(s) to look for in the repositories for software for a Dictionary / Thesaurus, where it is two different software packages or just one.I did see the "webpin" finds "WordNet", but installation of that fails.

Slackware :: Openoffice Will Not Save To Nfs Share - Openoffice 3.2.0

Jun 5, 2010

I have an nfs share that mounts automatically when kde starts.

Code:

wendy@DellNB:~$ cat .kde/Autostart/mountNAS.sh
#!/bin/bash
mount ~/TestShare
#echo "NAS Mounted"

[code]...

Gimp works fine editing and saving photos from/to the nfs share. kWrite can do its thing and read/create files on the NAS. Files I create with vim are visible and editable under windows. OpenOffice however, when I try an open a file I get "file is locked by unknown user." I open as copy and try saving to the share with a different name... No Dice, error saving to share the file is created on the share but it is empty. I did some reading and found a post that said to comment a line from a file called soffice, which I cannot find.

Ubuntu :: Create A Customized Spell-checker?

Oct 9, 2010

We need to harness the power of computing technology but, since I'm no programmer, I am posting here if some people can help with our situation.For many hours per day, we have to go through paragraphs and paragraphs of text. We have our own style guide to follow when it comes to:

capitalization
hyphenation

compound words (spaced out as two completely separate words?; hyphenated?; or joined together without any space?) We understand that Microsoft Word has a bit of customizability with it. But, to make the long story short, it's not good enough. So what we're looking for is to be able to paste several paragraphs into some program, and with rules that are 100%-created by us, have it alert us of the errors. If it could alert us the way that MS-Word or OpenOffice Writer does, that is, by using zizag underlines in red or green, that would be great. If you are a programmer or know a program that is 100% customizable (by 100% customizable, I mean that the only errors the programs considers errors are those that I tell it are errors).
