mac_heibu Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Im I missing something? Did someone manage to get hyphenation to work? I set spelling, hyphenation, … in the character panel to „German“, switched on hyphenation in the paragraph style, but nothing happens. Will the necessary libraries only be part of the release version?
pgraficzny Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 At the beginning, thank you for making the beta available on time I join the question about dictionaries. I need hyphenation in Polish.
pgraficzny Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 I'm sorry, I did not notice it was a 'Mac' topic. I moved to the 'Win' topic. A solution for implementing the Polish dictionary. Download the files downloaded from https://donate.libreoffice.org/home/dl/src/5.1.3/all/libreoffice-dictionaries-5.1.3.2.tar.xz?idx=2 and place them in the place shown in the screenshot. You can probably use this method for other languages. SillyWalk, VarrusKane and Gomke 2 1
mac_heibu Posted August 30, 2018 Author Posted August 30, 2018 As I said: I think I have set all relevant options, but no hyphenation at all. Could somebody please check this with a German text?
MikeW Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 German works. Make sure at each language section in your text style it is set to German. There is a bug in the last language setting--the Hyphenation Language will revert to no change. Set the score lower. Basically I just set it to 1 right now.

But hyphneation really really need some aditional work as mentioned already.
mac_heibu Posted August 30, 2018 Author Posted August 30, 2018 You are right @MikeW. Hyphenation is working, but really really bad! Try to hyphen „Rolltreppe“, it won’t work. You have to insert a soft hyphen. By the way: If Publisher would use macOS’ hyphenation support, it would do the job!
musiberti Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 I agree with mac_heinu. The german Hyphenation is not usable yet.

I should have shut that off for the screen shot. The other settings matter, too. But yes, Hyphenation needs some serious work. VarrusKane and postmadesign 1 1
mac_heibu Posted August 30, 2018 Author Posted August 30, 2018 Ups! How embarrassing! Score to „1“ works. Thank you! MikeW 1
MikeW Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 No worries! Hyphenation needs work. That setting is the only useful one for any language. It shouldn't be.
postmadesign Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 This was helpful, though it is not perfect, it kind of works right now pgraficzny 1

Pedrober Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 No luck with Galician language. I was able to create a /gl-ES directory in /Contents/Resources/Dictionaries, the language appears in the list of possible hyphenation languages but it doesn't work (even with score=1). Curiosly, if I replace the hyph_gl_ES.dic file with the Spanish file (in the /gl-ES directory), that fake Galician hyphenation works. Any suggestion?

I do not read/understand the language so I have no idea if even the web pages I copied from were correct!
Pedrober Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Mike, Thank you very much for your message. Your first quotation is a medieval text. The last one is modern Galician. Everything is OK. How do you get that result? Brilliant!

Back up your files, download the zip. The zip will contain a folder with the three files. If the folder name is the same as your present folder name, just copy the files it contains into your folder. If the folder name is different, delete your folder and copy the folder out of the zip containing the files into the dictionary folder. It will be uploaded in a few minutes as I'm away from the computer right now. Uploaded the ZIP file... gl_ES.zip Edited September 1, 2018 by MikeW Added ZIP file
Pedrober Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 Mike, Thank you for the files. No problem if I use the Windows version, but Galician hyphenation doesn't work in my Mac. I suppose it's a bug. Best wishes.

andremacola Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 The hyphenation for pt-br is terrible, you need to fix this guys.
RaSu Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 And what about czech hyphenation – is it planed in the future?
Fixx Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Would be nice to have finnish hyphenation. Shrike and WordHammer 2
Jannon Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Hyphenation for Czech, right after Finnish, please :-) SillyWalk 1
Staff Patrick Connor Posted September 26, 2018 Staff Posted September 26, 2018 We have rewritten some of the hyphenation routines for the next release, and I would be grateful if all the participants can retest hyphenation once the NEXT beta build (so one with a build number higher than .133) is available. Thank you. If there are still problems can you make new threads with sample files, as this one has so many participants. pgraficzny and MikeW 2 Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!
