Priority: medium
Bug ID: 57947
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Option to prevent LibreOffice from switching language
on keyboard input language change
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: NEW
Version: 3.4.4 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
This behavior - while certainly useful for many people - is something that
greatly disrupts some people's typing habits (or the language of the documents
they write).
I know that there is a workaround: to put all my used keyboards under the same
input language, but that has various other side effects, and I would like to
not have to change my OS's configuration for the sake of LibreOffice.
This issue is discussed in length on the openoffice bug tracker:
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=100762
Others also have this problem:

http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/2136/writer-document-language-changes-with-keyboard/
Bottom line is, there is a significant amount of people who are annoyed by this
behaviour, so a switch to turn it off would be welcome.
An addition: I could not reproduce this "feature" (bug?) in linux. Setting
"setxkbmap us" and "setxkbmap hu" did not change the language of the document.
This is one more reason to have this switch -- to be able to more easily
operate libreoffice consistently between platforms.
