Bug ID: 159020
Summary: UI: Text language context menu from status bar is not
self-explaining
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Text language context menu from status bar is not really self-explaining
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Writer (empty document)
2. Right/Left click on Document language shown at the bottom (screenshot
3. There is 'quick list' listing number of languages + more... category.
4. The More.. button which opens the Character Dialog (same as Format ->
Character)
5. Select some different language from the 'quick list' It will set Paragraph
Direct Format -> Char Locale
6. There is also a "Set Language for Paragraph". The submenu will list a number
of languages + more
7. Click the more button from the submenu. Character Dialog opens (seems the
same as Format -> Character)
Actual Results:
1) The dialogs, pointing to the same dialog is terrible confusing: what is the
difference? How do those relate to each other. I can't make any sense of it
2) I miss the ability to change the Paragraph Default Style language in the
status bar (that's what I'm often inclined to do; I want to change the
Paragraph Default Style because I'm writing a document in English. I'm actually
messing with Char Locales.
Expected Results:
More self-explaining workflow
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
