User sba changed the following: What |Old value |New value ================================================================================ Assigned to|sba |khong -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jan 18 09:28:56 -0800 2007 ------- SBA: Karl, we have a problem :-( Language set to German: I tried a string like "Good-Word-Good-Word-BaadWorrrd". In the CWS, the entire string gets underlined. And in the spellcheck dialog, the string shows up in red entirely. Before, only "BaadWorrrd" got underlined and displayed in red, having a chance for a meaningful suggestion in the dialog without having the Good-Word-Good-Word-BaadWorrrd string in a user dictionary. I talked to Frank Meies and Thomas Lange and I can not give a go for this behavior. Now, the spellchecker is meaningless whenever-someone-combines-many-good-words-with-dashes and having a single error within. This is a regression at least for German. For example, in German I can add a "worrrrd-wiiiith-daaaashes" into a user dict and this is taken as correct and shows up as proposal in online spell context menu. For English, this does not work. You provided no list for what languages this is enabled. It is not exactly intuitive that this works for German, but not for English. Unfortunately, I have no internet performance right now and could not compare what hunspell is doing. I am not yet aware of the problems or wishes for other languages. I do not know if Thomas Lange and Oliver Specht shall join with other fixes to get this done. I.e. the spell checker separating the "Good-Words" Words again if they are valid ones before displaying only the "BaadWorrrd" in red. My idea is that you build in this option, but it should be disabled for all languages by default. Then lazlo or whoever can easily flip a switch once the new Hunspell dicts are able to deal with this (at least for testing). In total I reagard the current behavior as too risky to be integrated at this time (shortly before code freeze). I am afraid that my observations is not the only regression. So we shall postpone all this for the next milestone.
