Bug ID: 305570
Severity: normal
Version: 4.9.0
Priority: NOR
Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
Summary: No visual highlighting for misspelled words with
automatic spell checking enabled
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: bluelightning at bluelightning.org
Hardware: Ubuntu Packages
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Component: composer
Product: kmail2
Everything appears to be working fine with spell checking in the KMail2
composer window with the exception of the visual part of highlighting
misspelled words with automatic spell checking enabled. If you right click on a
deliberately misspelled word, it offers suggestions, so the actual checking
part seems to be working - there's just no underlining of the word.
I searched for some appearance option within KMail or in System Settings but
could find nothing relevant, except for an item for "Misspelled words" within
the custom colour settings, but neither enabling and disabling custom colours
nor changing the colour had any effect. As a test I enabled automatic spell
checking in KWrite and it does underline misspelled words there, as does
Calligra Words, if either of those makes any difference.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the composer window
2. Type an obviously wrongly spelled word (e.g. wrod)
3. Press enter
4. Right click on the word
Actual Results:
3. Word is not underlined in red
4. Menu containing spelling suggestions pops up
Expected Results:
3. Word is underlined in red
4. (This part works as expected - just proves spelling engine is working)
