Description Tristan Miller 2005-10-28 15:31:37 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.3)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Bug 75937 causes the application to crash when the user tries to select a new spelling dictionary through the "Configure KNode..." or "Spelling" dialog.  Furthermore, having to invoke a new dialog window is a lot of work to change dictionaries, especially when one writes news articles in various different languages every day.

To fix this, please include a "Dictionary" drop-down list in the article composer so that the user can switch languages for a particular article on the fly.  KMail recently implemented this feature and it works great.

I also have this problem (knode crashes, taking kontact with him) and I find Tristan's suggestion to be excellent.

The backtrace from the crash

This is the backtrace from the crash that was caused by the switching of the
spellchecker's dictionary.

Comment 5 Jim Scadden 2014-05-11 15:31:16 UTC

This can probably be closed since bug 75937 was closed some time ago and knode provides a drop-down list of languages in the spelling dailog now

Comment 6 Christoph Feck 2014-06-10 20:57:56 UTC

Okey, let's close it.
