created a clean report for the failure of the spell-checker to modify the
character's language properties (regression in LO4.2) as bug 107765.

I'm suggesting that we close this particular bug report as WontFix.  It is
similar to bug 97188 (Cannot set spell-check language in Calc; therefore,
spell-check does not work at all).

--- Comment #3 from Justin L  ---
The most proper place to "set" the language for a specific document is the
default style - font tab.

I'm not familiar with Calc/spelling code, but from what I can see, spell
checking works on a per sentence basis, picking up the language from the
character/paragraph/cell properties.  In Calc, this would general mean that
each cell is checked independently, and most likely the language is defined in
the default style.

When you "change" the language in the spelling dialog, it changes it for that
one word, and then (assuming it is no longer considered to be a spelling error)
moves to the next sentence where it again switches to the "default style"
language for that sentence.

Writer acts similarly. Switching the dictionary language using the spell
checker jumps over that word and moves to the next error. The difference is
that in Writer, the character language property for the misspelled word is
actually changed.  That doesn't seem to happen in Calc.

So to deal specifically with OP's complaints.
1.) LO has a separate property to set the default language (likely defaulting
to your OS system locale, and unaffected by changes made to LibreOffice's
locale setting.) I would not consider this a bug - just something the user
needs to learn.
2.) Hopefully my description above explains why this happened. Although I agree
that in the Calc context, this doesn't fit as well, I wouldn't consider it to
be a bug either.

The only bug I see here is that Calc doesn't permanently change the language
properties of the "misspelled" word when the spelling dialog changes it - I
would consider that to be pretty minor in Calc.

Under Tools - Language settings - Languages there is a "default languages for
documents" section in which the document language is defined. I assume that is
where English US is defined.

I can confirm that changing the "Text language" in Tools - Spelling to another
language is goofy.  With my default language set to English UK, I am able to
switch to various English Canada/Australia OK, but not to English USA.  (The
opposite happens when I have English USA as the default language for documents
- then it acts as OP describes.)

> Calc did not pick up En-gb dictionary from system locale.

So you installed a dictionary extension? Can you point us to the link to it?
