Is there a forum to submit feature requests? I don't see one, and so I post here in case anyone knows any hacks to make these possible. Though I tend to doubt it.
1) It would be helpful to have a Calc formula function to return whether it thinks a cell contains a misspelled word, so that I can sort/filter for them, instead of eyeballing them. The spellcheck dialog going through one by one isn't that helpful. I'd rather see a full list all at once, where I could search/replace or delete the offending data.
2) When quickly eyeballing for misspellings, the red underline is easy to overlook. It'd be nice to be able to change the styling, so that instead of a red squiggly underline, it could have a red background or something else that would jump out and grab your attention.
Thanks.
