And my take is that any DF should remain. But this discussion is off-topic. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Do you mean that "Clear direct formatting" must be removed? It is the operation that exactly overwrites direct formatting. Also: do you suggest to change the application of paragraph styles, so that it doesn't overwrite DF? In essence: "we must not overwrite direct formatting by any operation" is simply a wrong statement. The effect of a given operation on DF is defined by us. And if it's "set this to *everything*", then a *natural* expectation is that after this user-initiated operation, *everything* has the wanted property. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149429 Heiko Tietze changed: What|Removed |Added Keywords|needsUXEval | CC|libreoffice-ux-advise@lists |heiko.tietze@documentfounda |.freedesktop.org|tion.org --- Comment #12 from Heiko Tietze --- My UI lang is English (USA), locale German, default language for documents English (USA). Dictionaries for both languages are installed. Testing with v7.5.1.2, VCL kf5. Calc starts a new document with Text Language = German (no idea why) but I can change it via status bar to English and "Hello World" is recognized then as correct. Switching the language means correctly to change it for the 'Default' cell style. Cell R10 in the example, is defined as French (France), removing the direct formatting (ctrl+M) makes it English for me. And subsequently language is applied to this cell. So I can follow Eike's comment 8. And we must not overwrite direct formatting by any operation (this summary is WF). However, the situation is very much unclear to users as the direct formatting is potentially overlooked and not aligned with the various places where the language is set (statusbar and menu). Calc also lacks on something like tools > language > for selection. Putting all together I think at least the statusbar needs to reflect the currently active language on the focused cell. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Minimal steps from a new document: 1. Open Calc 2. Right-click on cell A1 > Format cell > Font > change language to e.g. French > OK 3. Change language for document to e.g. English (from status bar, or Tools > Language > For all text, or Tools > Options > Language settings > Languages > Default languages for documents) Result: cell A1 is still in French. UX team, what do you think? - Is this difference between Writer and Calc desired? If so, we should probably make it clearer (in UI / in documentation) that direct cell formatting will not be overwritten by a change in default document language. And clarify that the status bar in Calc is to set the "Default language for this document", and not just the selected cells. - Or do we need to make a document language change overwrite the direct cell formatting?
