Version: (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources Assuming I have automatic spell check enabled and start typing in a text box (e.g. web form input) in language different from current default. Most likely typed words are underlined as error. If I now right click to invoke spell check dialogue, the last word (adjacent to cursor) is automatically selected and instead I get dialogue that suggests replacement! And if all words are "errored" (which is likely considering language is wrong), I get this dialogue clicking everywhere. This looks as if there is no way to change language. To actually invoke spell check dialogue to set language I need to type extra space so cursor is no more adjacent to "bad" word - only in this case does spell check dialogue pop up. This is rather non intuitive.
Proposed fix: http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/790/
Apart from the review request, I think it would be very useful to have a "Language" entry in the context menu directly, since switching the language with the dialog is rather cumbersome.
(In reply to comment #2) I second that. In 3.5 KMail offered direct language selection which was *very* useful.
There should be another bug report for that issue as I'm going to close this one when I commit the patch.
