I'm hesitant to group both problems together into a single bug. Let's focus on just the hyphenation problem for now.

These look like good, short repro steps. > 1) When I turn hyphenation on I expect to see hyphenation.

I think that could be a good enhancement. Please file that as a separate (enhancement) bug report. > 2) If possible, the user interfaces of the different components of > LibreOffice (Writer, Calc etc.) should work the same way.

I never expected to find the language settings at the place where > you choose fonts. Writer keeps font and language settings separate. I agree that Font and Language settings in Format -> Cells should be clearer. Perhaps separate tabs? Please file a separate enhancement request for this feature. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
