Bug ID: 148219
Summary: Spelling correction moves cursor to the beginning of
the word
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.2.6.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: markand95-pat...@yahoo.com
Description:
Although not a serious bug, and I could not find any other bugs related to
this. It is a minor observation which deals with the UX of the application.
The issue is suppose you are writing a sentence, you type in an incorrect word,
you see a red line under it, you right click and choose correct spelling. Now
with correct spelling in place the cursor goes to the first character of the
word. You can no longer just continue your typing. You need to put the cursor
manually back to end position.
Not a major issue, but irritating for users like me who prefer on the fly spell
corrections and make frequent errors.
MS Word does opposite, the cursor goes to the end of the word not at the
beginning hence you can immediately start typing further.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write a sentence with a word containing spelling mistake
2. Choose right spelling by right clicking red underlined word.
3. The cursor will be at the first character of the word.
Actual Results:
The cursor moves to the first character of the corrected word. To type further
sentence, cursor needs to be placed at the end manually
Expected Results:
Like MS Word, the cursor should be at the end of the word so that further
typing can be started immediately.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
