Thunderbird spell-checking for non en_US broken

Hi there,
Is someone else experiencing issues with spell-checking support for languages other than en_US?
Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to write and compose a new message
2. Click on the "Spelling" button in the top toolbar to select the dictionary.
In that selection I used to see all my installed dictionaries. Now I only see English (US).
Installed dictionaries:
hunspell 1.3.3-1
hunspell-de-de 20131206-1
hunspell-en-gb 7.1-2
hunspell-nl-nl 2.10g-1
hunspell-pl 20120911-2
Tested with the following versions of Thunderbird:
thunderbird 31.1.1-1
thunderbird-beta-bin 33.0b1-1
It does not seem to be an add-on issue since I also tried it with all add-ons being disabled.
Other programs still properly use the installed dictionaries.

With these (latest) versions of official x86_64 packages:
$ pacman -Qs hunspell
local/hunspell 1.3.3-1
Spell checker and morphological analyzer library and program
local/hunspell-en 7.1-3
English hunspell dictionaries
$ pacman -Q thunderbird
local/thunderbird 31.1.1-1
Standalone Mail/News reader
Works okay for me too.

Spell check for any application

Having only just my iphone I can't believe there is no spell check for the mail functionality. Aside from that why is spell check unavailable for yahoo and gmail through the web browser? Any ideas please...

Move the associated plist files for those applications out of /Library/Preferences/ within your home folder to the Desktop. E.g., com.apple.textedit.plist for TextEdit, quit and relaunch TextEdit, and re-enable spell as you type. If that fixes things, delete the moved file, and do the same with any other apps where it appears to be broken.

How can I enable spell checking for a text box that is just one line, e.g. subject in e-mail?

In a prior version of Firefox I found a website somewhere that told me what to do to enable spell checking for text boxes that are just one line. I got used to being able to send an e-mail with a Subject Line that didn't have a misspelling. Now it doesn't work. Please tell me how I can enable that again. I am on a Mac using Firefox 6.0.2. Thanks!

See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Spell_checking
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.spellcheckDefault
You can set the pref layout.spellcheckDefault to 2 on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

How can I enforce automatic spell checking for selected fields of data entered by form users?

I'd like to be able to enforce spell checking of selected fields in the forms that I've created using LiveCycle Designer 8.2 at run time, as opposed to design time. I understand the version LCD 8 has a nifty new spell checker for form designers. But I want to spell check the data entered by users using Acrobat Reader. And I want to enforce the spell checking automatically on selected fields only.
Presently it seems that users filling in my forms, must know how to manually right-click on each field and select "Spell Check" from the resulting dialog box in order to check for spelling errors in the data the user has entered in the form.
I would like to discover a way to enforce spell checking in selected fields, just as I am able to do in forms created using Acrobat Pro. In Acrobat Pro, I can set a property for each field to require spell checking. but that feature seems to be missing in Livecycle Designer.
I've check the Object model for XFA forms hoping that I might find a method I can call with a Javascript, to check spelling based on an event such as onBlur. But I haven't found a spell check method.
Am I missing something simple? Is there a way to set each field to be spell checked when a user is filling in the form using the free Acrobat Reader?
Our users are not sophisticated and requiring them to spell check each field separately just won't cut it...
Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
-David Bartholomew

Hi David,
Two things...
At design time set the locale of the form to one that Acrobat spell checks. For example English (US) and English (UK) locales have spell checkers; however English (Ireland) does not. Check the Warnings tab to see if spell checking is supported for your locale.
If your form locale supports spell checking then you can go to the button script below.
If you form locale does NOT support spell checking then Stephanie has a great work around to force spell checking (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2233945#2233945).
Bring a regular button onto the form and in the click event have the following:
app.execMenuItem("Spelling:Check Spelling");
Which will open the spell checker for all fields. Thanks to Paul for extracting all of the accessible menu items (http://forums.adobe.com/message/1912914#1912914).
Good luck,
Niall

Perhaps you can find an Arabic dictionary for OpenOffice. That may also work with OS X.

Duplicate check for non inventory vendor invoices in Finance

Hi,
SAP provides duplicate check for non inventory vendor invoices posted through transactions F-43 and FB01 etc. The field values checked for duplicate invoice include Document date and Reference field.
I want to know, is there any flexibility of removing Document date from checking criteria?
This is to facilitate picking more invoices in duplicate check net.
Regards,
Vijay

Dear Vijay
Yes, you can control this via business transaction events. Please review the below explanation.
In Rel 4.6, duplicate invoices are checked using function module
FI_DUPLICATE_INVOICE_CHECK which is called when invoices are posted via trans FB60. Duplicate invoice checking criteria can be customized using the open FI interface SAMPLE_PROCESS_00001110 (custom function module) starting from Rel 4.6. Please verify if the open FI interface 00001110 is being used in your system and review duplicate invoice selection criteria via trans BERP. You may wish to omit the document date (BLDAT field from the duplicate invoice check criteria to trigger error msg F5117. In addition, table BSIP (vendor duplicate documents) may need to be updated. (see note 114563 for further info).
Please also check note 537213, and note 31771 for your information.
If this helps please reward with points.
Best Regards
Kesav

How do I obtain spell check for Photoshop Elements 12

I use spell check with my Photoshop CS but I don't see a spell check for my Elements 12. Is there a plug in I can get for a spell check?

In photoshop cs2 record the spell check action:
1. Create a new document and type a word you know is misspelled
2. Go to Window>Actions
3. At the bottom of the actions palette press the Create New Set button
4. At the bottom of the actions palette press the Create New Action button
5. Press Record, go to Edit>Check Spelling, press Done on the spell check dialog and click on the Stop Recording button at the bottom of the actions palette
6. Save your action set to somewhere like your desktop using the Save Actions from the actions palette fly-out menu.
In the photoshop elements 12 editor in the Expert mode
1. Go to window>Actions and load the spell check action from the fly-out menu on the actions panel
2. Click on the name of the action (not the name of the action set) and press Play to play the action.
The check spelling action should work in pse 12 just as check spelling does in photoshop cs2

Spell checker for KWrite doesn't work [SOLVED]

How do I enable spell checking for the KDE editors, i.e. KWrite, Kate, etc? I've installed aspell via pacman, it's in /usr/bin which is in my PATH. In KWrite's Settings>Configure Editor>Plugins, there is an option "KTextEditor KDataTool Plugin: Enable data tools like thesaurus and spell check (if installed)" which I've checked. In another distro, that's how I enabled spell checking with aspell, i.e. by checking this box for the spell check plugin. But in Arch this doesn't seem to be sufficient. When I try to spell check a document in KWrite, I get this error:
"The spelling program could not be started. Please make sure you have set the correct spelling program and that it is properly configured and in your PATH."
What else do I need to do?
Robert
EDIT: Sorry, searching this forum for "spellcheck" hadn't yielded any solution but after I posted this I also searched for "spell AND check" and found the solution: I had neglected to pick Aspell as the client for spell checking in Control Center>KDE Components>Spell Checker.

Pages does not perform spell check in Turkish, same as the mail, I can't think of anybody in todays life and does not use mail. When will Turkish users have language support in our own language? I don't mean sceens, they are in Turkish but when I write someting in Mail, its all red underlined.
Thanks to those interested.

Spell check for kids using flash

I am creating a spell check for kids using flash.
The flash starts with a silhouettes of a word say B A N A N A and below it shows a jumbled up letters. The kids drags and drops each letter on top of the dark silhouettes. If it matches scores points.
Any help in creating AS3 script will be apreciated. I did create one using mc and target mc and works fine when the mc is draged on to target mc. Only problem arises when there are duplicate letters.
Thanks in advance

What I described will work as you describe wanting. If every A movieclip has a property (name this property anything you want, like "myLetterValue") with a value of "A" and every A-target movieclip also has a property with a value of "A", then you can use those properties to determine when any object with an "A" is planted on any target with an "A"
So when you drop a letter on a target you compare the property of each to see if they are equal... if(targetMC.myLetterValue == letterMC.myLetterValue){ // correct match }

Spell check for metadata

Hi,
Is there already a way to do a spell check for the different fields in the metadata (keywords etc.)?
Cheers,
Michael

Yes, there is a way. Right click (or ctrl+click) in the metadata field and there are spelling options in the contextual menu.
Now, does anyone know how to make "Check Spelling as You Type" the default, always turned on when starting Aperture?
