A feature in spell checkers is to allow the user to right click on a misspelled word and select from one of the alternatives that the spell checker engine suggests.
It would be nice if KWord had this feature too.

I actually think this is a bug, but I can't be sure. Most KDE Applications that use 'automatic spellchecking' have this feature, but KWord doesn't seem to. Also, I don't know about your installation, but mine doesn't have any option for spelling in the 'tools' menu (or any menu for that matter). Spelling is available as a toolbar button, though not on the toolbar by default, but if you add it, it remains disabled.

Hello
I think that's would be a feature : automatic spelling correction is an fondamental option in all word processors.
Please integrate this in Kword
thank you !
