Opera 10.51 and dictionary

Hey all,

recently upgraded to the new Opera 10.51 and previously if I made a spelling mistake it would underline it and then if I right clicked on the incorrectly spelt word it would provide me with a list of possible words (like Microsoft Word does).

Now with Opera 10.51 it no longer gives me possible words, also there is an option with Dictionaries although it is greyed out and I am assuming Opera does not detect any dictionaries installed.

I was previously using Aspell, just reinstalled Aspell and still have the same problem.

How can I get this sorted out? I really liked having the spell-check feature and having Opera give me possible words (my spelling isn't that great).

Thanks

You can uninstall Aspell — Opera has used Hunspell dictionaries for some time and Aspell won't do anything.

If you right click in a text box, you should be able to add/remove dictionaries from the Dictionaries submenu.

Currently broken in Notes too — wait for 10.52 or try the latest beta and see if it works.
