Title:
Chromium browser does not change spell checking language
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: chromium-browser
Enter some text into a text entry field (maybe lauchpad "Further
information". Right click into the entered text, select "Spell checker
options", then desired language.
Nothing happens.
Again right click into the entered text, select "Spell checker
options". The spell checker language did not change! Again select the
desired language. Nothing happens.
The only way to change spell checker language is to right click into
the entered text, then select "Spell checker options", then "Language
settings ...". Change the language to the desired one, close the
dialogue. Now right clicking into the text, selecting "Spell checker
options" shows the new language.
This is at least annoying!
