"ignore" button

[giacomociani]

Hi Jordi,

I was thinking about at a new feature, not really fundamental but hopefully simple to implement. In case you are looking for some ideas to keep developing...

Sometimes it happens to write an e-mail to someone in a language that is not the one you would normally use. For example, sometimes I write in English to my Italian friends, or simply insert a English paragraph in the text and want the spell-check to check that rather than the Italian part of the mail (that I know better!).

So, I was wondering: when the little pop-up comes on notifying that the dictionary association has been updated, would it be possible to have a button there to "undo" the action? It will also require the notification to stay on for a little longer, as right now it's really quick to disappear on my system (basically it slides up and immediately down... i guess what ti says, more than really reading it!).

I realize that having to click on that button doesn't save much compared to simply re-doing the association the next time you write to the same person, but if you have more than one recipients on that e-mail, it might be an advantage.

I hope the request is clear... let me know if not!

Cheers!

Giacomo

Hi Giacomo,

I understand what you say and it's a good feature, but it's not easy to do it.

I'll leave it as a feature and open. Maybe some day I can implement It or someone else gets interested and does it by itself.

Thanks for your interest! You have been really helpful!

Cheers!

Don't worry. It was just an idea, nothing critical...

Cheers

Giacomo

I know I'm coming 10 months later, but I would like to both thank Beltrachi and join giacomociani with the same idea: I usually write in French to my colleagues, but often, I write in English to a client and copy my colleagues. This results in replacing the existing association (my colleagues - French) with English, and I have to redo the association with French for them. Would it be easier to have a setting to target the language association only on the TOs and not the CCs? It would mostly solve the issue as the most relevant association is mainly for the TO, and not necessarily for the CCs. Just an idea to see if it is easier to implement this way. The other way round would be to have an access to the file where the associations are recorded and be able to "freeze" some associations. Hmmm... might be more work though...

OK, anyway thanks for this add-on, it is just clever.
