Language problem

Arran · 08-31-2015, 09:33 AM

Hi

Sigil speaks, as I want it to, German with me. However when working on a German book, I get all words marked with that wavy red line, despite I have set the German language under Setups.

Is it possible, that i would have to set up the dictionary and other language files like the sillabification first? If so, can someone lead me to the correct sources?

Thanks.

Yes. There is a translation file for the interface that is embedded into Sigil, that is why you get the UI in german. If you want the spelling checker to use German, you need to supply the language files. The easiest way would be downloading these from OpenOffice. You need the .oxt file, which you can extract. From the extracted .oxt file, you need the .aff and .dic file if I am not mistaken. In the Sigil settings you can see where you need to place the files.

Thank you.
After following your tips, I am now pleased with the work.
