Hi Patrick,

"Check Spelling" is "inherited" from KTextEdit, which is a part of KTextWidgets framework, so IMO this bugreport is not actually related to ktp-text-ui, but to underlying libraries.  Furthermore, there is no any related change in the application since its port to KF5 and the spell check works for me and everybody I asked, so I'm sure that there is something bad with your installation or setup. Please check your Sonnet and Aspell/Hunspell installation and configuration, try to reproduce the issue with a different KDE Application and if there is any problem, then send a bug report to your distribution first.

We can reopen the bug later, if it would make sense.
