Error when changing font size for mispelled text in notes

Development

Noticed that when in notes and a word is underlined by spell checker and you change the font size, a error message pops up.

You need to turn off spell check before making change and then you can turn it back on.

This also happens in the Note addon gramplet. When I just ran into this error using the example.gramps tree, I thought the problem was related to Linked text… but it was spellcheck not linked text.

Have you filed a bug report? filed 0013282: Note Editor error styling text on spelling error

reproduced in Gramps 5.2.1 on Fedora 37
