2.17.7 should ask only 2 directory for dictionaries on Windows: |

If you right-click in any editable area (e.g. the message composer box), you'll see an If you have any suggestions to improve this, I'd love to know.
Looks like a bug in the Rocket.Chat server itself. Do you have access to its version? |
Was not aware of that! French is not part of the list, how can I add it ?
Maybe an additional setting "spell check language" option ? Thanks for the support |
@ThomasKientz I think I've let the |
On my Ubuntu 16.04, I created the |
i have the same problem with the windows client (v 2.17.7). if i disable the spell checking it gets enabled the next time i start the rocketchat client and is set to en_US |
Same issue as the two above on the Mac client. Is there any reason not to use the OS' spellchecker ? I use mostly computers running MacOS and they come with a system-wide spellchecker / dictionary. I believe this is how it was implemented in Discord for example, another cross-platform Electron app. Just a question here, haven't explored the technical feasibility of this on each platform. |
Yeah it's realy annoying. Choosen language is being reset all the time. (Mac OS) |
Best way to fix this is to add manually the French or other language dictionnary. |
For languages with diacritics you need to also convert it to UTF-8. |
Just FYI: the same issue happens on my 2.17.11 client on Linux. I keep turning spellcheck off (I'm working in a tri-lingual group of people so it's useless) and every time I start the client it resets to en_US. |
The problem still exists on rocket chat client version 3.0.6. After turning this off by deselecting English and restarting rocket chat, English is by default selected again. |
Why don't you try latest 3.1.1 version? |
3.0.6 was the version linked on https://rocket.chat/ but I also checked 3.1.1 later after writing this comment and the problem still exists also on 3.1.1. Also, I thnk there was nothing in the changelog that would suggest this was fixed? I installed an old version of rocket chat - 2.16.2 and this bug is not there. Also, we use quite old server version 2.0.1 - no time to update it. I guess when we find more time, we will update the server and then I will try the latest client again. |
I can confirm it seems to be impossible to start RocketChat 3.1.1 with a disabled spell checker. I have to do disable spell check manually every time I start RocketChat (every day). |
It's still happening in the latest Rocket Chat. It is very annoying. Will this ever be fixed? |
Not confirm that. |
Just downloaded the 3.5.6 and I'm able to disable spell checking now 👍 After a restart, despite en-US is automatically turned back on, RocketChat doesn't show red lines. I don't know whether that is intended, but as long as I can restart without getting red lines, it's fine for me. Thanks! |
My Setup
Description
Spell check is enabled but probably set to a different language that my system. I can not find a way to disable it or to set the language to french.
Impossible to change the language to French which is in the list and no option to disable spellcheck.
When I select French and go back, "Default" is still active.
I have never added any dictionary or anything before.
