Since I upgraded to El Capitan, Spotlight has refused to look up for definitions in my custom dictionary (built by me). Instead, it sticks itself with Apple's default English-English dictionary.
Note that the custom dictionary:
- is already at the top of the dictionary list;
- still works just fine with Dictionary.app and Quick Lookup (three-finger touch).
Does anyone know why and have a solution or workaround to this problem?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Well, I managed to almost get it working by going to
/Library/Dictionaries
and renameOxford Dictionary of English
into something else. Then Spotlight started showing the results from dicts in Dictionary.app.However, this is a rather kludgy solution for me because:
I guess, you could just remove all dictionaries that you do not use. Anyhow, maybe it could be of some help for you.
