hi folks. I have installed 1.4 on ubuntu. When I attempt to run spell
checking the spell check box pops up for a second (less) and then
disappears. It tells me the number of words checked, but does not in
fact check them or offer me alternatives.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on? is there anything i can do
to fix this problem?
thanks in advance
bruce
I think this bug may be #2218, you can read comments at
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2218
I think spellchecking from the shell might work.
Save the file and type aspell -c foo.lyx at the command line.
It would find all the various preamble misspellings but if
you add them, eventually you will just have your words
in the document spellchecked.
Regards,
Stephen
