Description Peter A. Goodall 2002-08-05 22:07:39 UTC 
Currently when a word is misspelled you right-click on the word, choose
"Check <misspelled-word> spelling..." and are presented with a dialog box
with choices on possible spellings.  There you choose the right word and
click on [ Replace ].

Instead, right-clicking on the word should have the choices of possible
spellings along with the other choices (Add <misspelled-word> to
dictionary..., Ignore <mispelled-word>).

That way you can right-click and then choose the correct spelling right
there, and you avoid unnecessary dialog boxes.

I am trying to reproduce and fix this bug
Comment 5 André Klapper 2006-06-08 15:27:42 UTC 
this has been fixed by partha and srini:
http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/gtkhtml/components/html-editor/popup.c?r1=1.90&r2=1.91

fix will be included in unstable evolution 2.7.3 (gtkhtml 3.11.3) and the upcoming evolution 2.8 (gtkhtml 3.12).

another idea would be to not put the possible spellings into a {LANGUAGE_NAME}-submenu, but to put them on the first level of the context menu - see bug 330452.

srini, thanks for better gnome-spell integration into evolution (and of course much more stuff)! ;-)

yay...
