2017-02-27 14:41:49 +0200 | commented question | Images created in MSO Word replaced by a small icon titled - Image1, image2 etc. Clicking it results tabs titled: Type Options Wrap Image "Crop Borders Area Transparency Macro. Selecting the "Image" tab shows a box with the image in it. Posting the question in this location was an error on my part. Is it possible to remove the recent image question? The previous question regarding spelling should be marked as solved but I don't know how to do that either. |
2017-02-27 14:35:28 +0200 | asked a question | Images imbedded in word docs are replaced by icons. When opening Word documents created in MS Office, images have been replaced by a small icon in the upper left corner titled Image1, image2 and so on. This could be a result of changing from MS Office to Libreoffice? Clicking on it brings up a list of tabs titled: "Type" "Options" "Wrap" "Image" "Crop" "Borders" "Area" "Transparency" "Macro." Selecting the "Image" tab shows a box with the image in it and some tools such as > Flip, vertically, horizontally, On all pages, on left pages and so on. How do I restore the images to these doc's? Thanks |

Selecting the "Image" tab shows a box with the image in it. Here is the re-post of my question as requested. I am a new user who has poured over the questions and answers with no success. LO version 5.2.3.3 MS Windows 10 with current updates. The spell checker never worked except once there appeared a squiggly line under a word but it wouldn't give me a suggestion and has never done it again. Typing a sentence with obvious errors then selecting "Tools/Spelling and Grammar" results the message: "Spellcheck is complete". Selecting Tools/Language - gets a check mark for English (USA) and no others. Looking in: "Tools->Options ..., Language Settings->Writing Aids" Items with checks are the following: Lightproof grammar checker English. Standard all English. en US english USA. Technical all. IgnoreAllList all. Check spelling as you type. Check uppercase words. Check special regions. Minimum number . . . . . 5 Characters before . . . . 2 Characters after. . . . . . 2 Hyphenate special regions. Regarding: "in tools - Options - Language settings - Languages - Default Languages for Documents." The defaults are set for English USA. |

2016-11-30 21:02:54 +0200 | commented answer | Spell check doesn't work Since 11/5/2016 And now with the spell check working I am a happy camper. . |
2016-11-30 16:55:56 +0200 | commented answer | Spell check doesn't work Problem solved. Early on in this session I was advised that changing the user profile was not necessary. Well guess what? It was - and it seems to have fixed my spellcheck problem. Thank you very much for your time and interest in solving this. |
2016-11-28 04:41:00 +0200 | commented answer | Spell check doesn't work I deleted the previous version of LO and installed a new one - nothing has changed. Both downloads were from www.Libreoffice.org/download |

2016-11-25 01:22:57 +0200 | commented answer | Spell check doesn't work Spelling doesn't correct files created by LO or MSO. I can't find "Hunspell" or instructions regarding it - so can't see if it's ticked. Maybe somebody will tell me? |

2016-11-23 17:41:19 +0200 | commented answer | Spell check doesn't work You say "Repost as a question" then say "You can't have more than one specific question in one thread." That only serves to further confuse me. My second posting was not a question but was an attempt to supply more information as I was told. (???) Doesn't the information I posted answer your questions? Also how do I turn on "Hunspell spell checker"? |
