Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 27358
Html Editor spell check leaves parts of red lines.

Hi, I have noticed this for some time. When I perform a spellcheck in Html Editor and correct the word, not all of the squiggly red line is removed. Part of it remains as screen rubbish. Thanks Kelvin

Hi there Kelvin, It's not doing the same for me, also using 1.1.1 on WinXP. Could you confirm whether this happens all the time please, or only under certain situations? Additionally, if you're able to try recreating the same problem on another computer then so much the better! In any case, if you could describe step by step how to recreate the problem (e.g. are you correcting the word by right-clicking on it and selecting an alternative, or some other way?) then we could have a closer look at this. Thanks! Stuart.
Hi, I can reproduce this problem on two different machines. Both machines have screen resolution set to 1024x768. Further investigation shows the problem is when the zoom is 100%. When I first went to reproduce this problem now on either machine I could not. I knew the problem existed as I have seen it many times. (I do a lot of development using Html Editor as it is what I use for my websites.) I persisted and eventually found, as best I can tell, it is at the zoom of 100% where the issue occurs. Open the attached document using Html Editor Change the zoom to 100% Right click on the incorrect word "businesss" Select "business" You will know even before doing this if it is going to work or not. The black highlight box does not cover all the required area. I have attached another screen capture which shows this more clearly. You will need to zoom in quite a bit to see the detail. I hope this helps. Regards Kelvin

Aha! Thanks for the extra info -- now I've managed to reproduce this on my work computer in Win2k, using both OOo 1.1.1 and 680_m34. However, the issue only seems to occur when I'm using Arial 12 point, in the HTML editor, and at 100% zoom, as you say. Can you confirm for me whether that's also the case with you (e.g. it doesn't occur with Garamond or Times New Roman etc), please Kelvin, before I mark the issue as new? Also, as this issue doesn't break OOo in any way (though isn't ideal), I wonder whether you might agree to it being marked as P4 rather than P3? Stuart.
Hi, Well done. I have been able to reproduce this with any other font (not as thought I would stray to far from the standard fonts in Html Editor) and not at other point sizes either. Interestingly one test I did was I added the enlarge and reduce font buttons. Increasing the font 10-12-14 did not produce the effect, but reducing the font 14-12-10 did. I also tried a number of zoom factors. There could always be a hidden combination, but so far I have only found Arial, 12 point at 100% as you say. Happy for the issue to be P4. Screen garbage to me drops the perceived quality of a product. The more we can get rid of screen garbage the better. It is however not a major issue. Thanks for your time Kelvin
Thanks for the extra info, Kelvin. Marking this issue as 'new' -- we should hear from the relevant developer when they've had a chance to take a look! Stuart.

i can confirm this on OOo1.1.1 but not on OOo1.1.2 seams to be fixed please install OOo1.1.2 and try to reproduce this issue. i will close this issue as fixed please feel free to reopen if this still exist with OOo1.1.2 on your system.
closing
Hi, I just tested this on both OO1.1.2 and m51 and the problem still exists. I downloaded the document that is in this issue and then did the following in each version. Open the attached document using Html Editor Change the zoom to 100% Right click on the incorrect word "businesss" Select "business" Both had the bottom of the red squiggly line left. I'll reopen Thanks Kelvin
hmm i can easily reproduce this, evertime i try it, with OOo1.1.1 but not with OOo1.1.2 nor with 680_m51 (where i tested after your comment)
reassigned to jw
Reproduced in OOo1.1.2, WinXP.
can reproduce with OOo 1.9m51 on linux. As reporter wrote, this depends on zoom-level. A forced refresh of the screen (<ctrl>+<alt>+r) removes the remnants of the line.
ok set version to m51. i'am still not able to reproduce this in any other version then OOo1. 1.1 but with that lot of confirmations here in the comunity i accept this as still present. i will look for an developer responsible for this
reassigned to sba need a second look in spellchecker after integration of cws OS19
cws OS19 has now been integrated into the development build, but this issue is still present for Arial, 12pt, 100% zoom, as per kelvine's original report. Currently this should be tested using words other than "bussiness" however, owing to additional difficulties posed by new issue 35673 -- alternative incorrectly spelt words such as "kitshen" should be used to test this defect.
SBA->FME: I could reproduce this in 680m70 on Windows2000 with 100% Zoom and Arial font 12pt. Looks like repaint problems of the context menu (the leftovers are identical with the place the context menus top pixel line has been. Reassigned to FME
