--- Comment #2 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Jukka Siitari from comment #0) > I am writing all Latin letter based languages with a Nordic (ie. Finland, > Sweden) keyboard. I am used to it and it works in many cases better than a > keyboard for a language I am writing in. Note that it is impossible to write > Nordic (and many other) languages without many extra keystrokes with an > English keyboard. I am writing a lot of texts in English or Finnish, but > also in several other languages. Note that if you wanted, you could set up your Windows to have several input languages, *each* having the same keyboard layout; then you could assign some system keyboard shortcut(s) to either cycling those input languages, or to each specific input language. All that is available in system "Language Preferences" applet. This is the intended way of using several languages with the mentioned Writer feature. That is natural for any user who uses not only Latin scripts; e.g., for a Cyrillic-language user, it would be natural, since there's no keyboard layout having both Cyrillic and Latin characters -> we have at least two keyboard layouts, with respective input languages assigned; and pressing Ctrl+Alt system shortcut to switch between English keyboard and a Cyrillic keyboard, we also tell Writer to mark our text with appropriate language. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
