Re: [Sugar-devel] Spellchecker in Write-63
Since this topic came again up while talking to someone who is working on a smaller deployment in Central America I was wondering whether anybody here knows whether the lack of being able to use the spellchecker is indeed a bug or intended to be like this?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Spellchecker in Write-63
Hi Christoph, The designers of Write deliberately left out right click context menus which is where you would normally get spelling suggestions from abiword. Ask the guys in the black T-shirts why this is a good idea :-) Cheers Martin On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 11:05 AM, Christoph Derndorfer christoph.derndor...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, while writing an article on the XO-1.5 (build 851, Write-63) I realized that wrongly spelled words were being underlined with red yet there was no way to access the traditional suggestions menu with a right-click or something.
