Created attachment 168808 [details] Spelling Suggestions shortcuts I work with documents that need a lot of spelling corrections but it cannot be done automatically due to word context. For the sake of efficiency, could we have keyboard shortcuts in the spelling suggestions popup (context menu)? This would be very helpful as I rely a lot and use very frequently this feature. I attached image of how I think it could be implemented. If the top ten suggestions were made accessible via 0-9 shortcuts that would be great. Thanks.
Under Ubuntu with vclplugin GTK3, I have shortcuts for spelling suggestions. I need only to hit Alt key to see the shortcuts which appear as an underlined character in each suggestion. I see a difficulty with your proposition: it is not easy to use numeric shortcuts when you do not have a physical numeric keypad. What is your OS and did you check if these shortcuts are visible on your system? Status has been set to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested information has been provided. Best regards. JBF

JBF Jean, I use Windows. For the standard options, the keyboard shortcuts appear automatically on my setup, as seen on the screenshot, but there are no shortcuts for the suggestions themselves. Pressing ALT does nothing unfortunately. Regarding the difficulty you mention, why do I need a numeric keypad? Every standard keyboard comes with a row of numbers across the top. Cheers, J

Indeed, but on azerty keyboards, you have to press the Shift key to produce numbers with the top row. It does not work for shortcuts. Best regards. JBF

Even for azerty users, I don't how it is a problem. It would still be quicker and more efficient than having to move to the arrow keys or the mouse to make a selection. Besides, I don't think it makes sense to ignore this simple but very useful feature request because it is not as efficient for a minority of users. Over and out. J.

[snip] > Best regards. JBF Jean, I fired up my Ubuntu 21 and installed the default deb packages. I can see GTK3 integration is working, but I don't get shortcuts for the suggestions when I press ALT. Can you give me your OS/LO versions and packages installed (including source)? My Libreoffice was 7.1.5 Thanks. J.
Let me check what you have told me in Ubuntu. Because I am using Ubuntu OS. And I have been looking for this for a long time. I am so happy to find the solution here. https://eterniadigitalsolutions.in/ I will try it soon.
