Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #3 from Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> --- Some related discussion around the topic: Bug 103036 - rework document Language Setting into a dedicated dialog Bug 104318 - CTL, CJK & Western Language GUI controls confusing, need rework for a "Global" user community Bug 146928 - Rework font selection dialog for multiple language groups - don't hide CJK/CTL tab The latter has been implemented and we could add some kind of radio or tool button to force the text (DF, CS, and PS) to this style family. As an ignorant writer of the Western sscript I never know how this works. Assuming some mixed text like "Lorem ipsum أو شكل توضع" how do I know whether the caret is on the left tab in the character tab or the right? Would be solved with the mutually exclusive control. Alternatively we move the active tab to the left side stretching the dual-list paradigm a bit. But this could be done easily with standard controls. Is there a chance to get rid of the trinity, somehow, and speak only about languages rather than scripts? IOW, changing the "Language" dropdown from English to Arabic affects the script automatically - and needs to pick a proper font... and vice versa meaning to switch from Liberation Sans to Noto Sans CJK SC turns the language into Chinese and the script into CJK. Sounds wrong to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
