Pressing F7 with a text box selected, I get the pop up dialog box.
How is spell check supposed to be accessed?
Is there any menu, toolbar, properties methods?
Only had time for a Very quick scan of the F1 help, wiki, or UI.
I only came across suggestions to use aspell from command line or do
spell checking in a word/text processor before importing to Scribus.

Someone asked for a test on Debian testing, which I am running with Scribus
1.3.9. I get a dialog with both the menu item access and F7, and misspelled
words are shown with replacements, but when I change the words the
formatting is messed up, with words overlapping or overwriting others, and
one line was lost. The second time I ran it with new spelling errors
inserted, I got just a check complete dialog.

(Very preliminary test.)
