GCF: with spelling off, you cannot enable grammar in dialog
Last modified: 2013-02-24 20:42:37 UTC
In case when spelling check is off (for example, Hunspell is set to off in Options dialog), you cannot enable the "Check grammar" dialog box if it was disabled. The spelling dialog closes instantly and there is no option in Options dialog to enable it back. The only workaround now is to enable hunspell, make a spelling mistake in a language that has a spelling dictionary installed, and check the "Check grammar" box again. There should be a standalone option as well in Options dialog (Language settings > Spelling), as the workaround is not intuitive and there can be usage scenarios when someone wants to disable spelling for a language (for example, some languages could have no spelling dictionary but only a grammar checker that includes some spelling functions).
Setting a default target of OOo 3.2. Issue still needs to be evaluated.

set target 3.x not relevant for 3.4 release
