Description erick 2011-02-25 16:09:04 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                MS Windows

The spell check in Kile (version 2.0.86) does not work. I have selected the auto check in Configure Kile --> Editor --> editing --> spellcheck, also enabled the "data tools" in extension manager. But when I write articles in Kile, it just does nothing! I type wrong spelled words manually, no any tip or correction, even I click "tools --> spelling", pop-out window says "Spell check complete" but with nothing changed with the wrong words.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
tools --> spelling

Actual Results:  
nothing happened

Expected Results:  
auto correct the wrong spelled words or give suggestions.

Can you maybe double-check that you have actually installed any dictionaries?

Also, did you install the MSVC or MinGW packages?

Sry, I am just starting with KDE, I did not find where is the dictionary option. 

I installed MinGW packages.

Instructions for installing Kile on Windows can be found here:

  http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/kile/index.php?title=KileOnWindows

Actually, for best results (with Kile), it is recommended to install the MSVC packages. If I remember correctly, there were some issue with spell checking regarding the MinGW packages.

Can you please update to the latest KDE for Windows release and check whether the problem still occurs? Thanks.

This bug has had its resolution changed, but accidentally has been left in NEEDSINFO status. I am thus closing this bug and setting the status as RESOLVED to reflect the resolution change.
