--- Comment #7 from [email protected] ---
Thanks for looking into this, Stéphane.

I think you are right in that "the list shows the languages used currently in
the document, not what was recently selected". Somehow, I expected these lists
tho show "recently used languages". Although ...

1) Open/create a new Writer document.
2) Write "test text", and select the word "test".
3) Change the language "For Selection" to several different languages.

Expected result: The language lists should only contain the default language
and the last selected language.

Actual results: The language lists contain all recently chosen languages, up to
a maximum of seven different languages. Even changing the language "For All
Text" does not remove unused languages from the list(s).


I reopened this bug report for now. Should I open a new bug report for the
behaviour in the current comment? In a way, it is the opposite of my original
bug report. What I crave most from a UI is consistency. So, either show
recently used languages in the language lists, or show only currently used
languages.

In addition, only the language list "For Selection" correctly indicates the
used language with a check mark. This is either not implemented or not working
"For Paragraph" and "For All Text".

Maybe someone liked the idea of "recently used languages" and a check mark to
indicate the currently used language, but it was only implemented "For
Selection", causing the other language lists to behave inconsistently?
