How do you spell check in libreoffice with NVDA? NVDA does not tell me the
misspelled word after I hit f7 for spell check
For now:
When the edit field that contains the sentence/line including the
misspelled word receives focus, the cursor is initially positioned at
the misspelled word.
The misspelled word is indicated by being formatted in bold red font, so
you can also use that to identify the word by using NVDA+F to announce
the formatting of the word the cursor is currently at. For the
misspelled word, NVDA will say something including "bright red bold".
There's an existing bug report to improve the situation (
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135236 ), but that
still needs more work.
and when I tab through
buttons and if I hit ignore, it seems like it isn't moving onto the next
word. Sometimes it freezes up and puts me back at the top of my document.
That sounds like a bug and I can't reproduce that. Can you give exact
steps to reproduce?
Or is there a way just to move between misspelled word in the document
itself without using the spelling checker dialog? I know that google docs
lets me use control apostrophe and control semicolon to move between
misspelled words right in the document. Can this be done in libreoffice?
I'm not aware of such a feature, but maybe others know more.
