I agree that this is preferable. IMO, there is room for a better UI than hiding language switching under Edit>Text-Style>Custom. Also, the "apply last style" button would become more useful if it would not mix change of font size (or family) with change of language. How about a separate toggle-language button? In most cases, a document switches between at most 2 languages (native language and English, say). Günter
