            Bug ID: 143689
           Summary: UI: No feedback that spell checker isn't working
                    because of lack of a dictionary (whereas automatic
                    spell checking is turned on)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.3.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: telesto at surfxs.nl

Description:
UI: No feedback that spell checker isn't working because of lack of a
dictionary (whereas automatic spell checking is turned on)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open attachment 156910 (and make sure you don't have Spanish dictionary)
2. Expand the Tools menu
3. Notice the automatic spell checking being enabled

Actual Results:
Automatic spell checking is marked enabled, but doesn't work without
dictionary. However there is no indication that dictionary is lacking.. 

Expected Results:
So visual clue that the dictionary is lacking.. so spell checking isn't handled

Yes, LibreOffice ships with all language bundles (in Windows). No clue how the
situation is for MacOS or Linux. But there are surely cases where dictionary's
are missing.. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
