OOo 3.2.1 from openoffice.org (not repositories) on Fedora 14 x86_64.
Under Tools> Language there are three choices:
For Selection
For Paragraph
For All Text
Regardless of which I select, the language options change. English is
always available, as are "None - Do not check spelling" and
"More ..."
Clicking on More... gets me the Language dialog box in Options, which
allow me to set the language of the User Interface, and of the Locale
Setting. I can also set the default language for documents. But there
seems to be no way to set optional dictionaries.
I have the English, Spanish and French dictionaries installed
in /opt/openoffice.org3/share/extension/install/.
Sometimes when I go into Tools> Language I get the option of English
(always) Spanish (sometimes), Portuguese (sometimes), never French,
and sometimes two or three of the above. There is no consistency.
And note that there is no Portuguese dictionary installed.
At the moment I am trying to write a document in Spanish and the
Spanish option does not appear. Closing and restarting OOo makes no
difference. The only way I can create a new document with the Spanish
language setting is to open a document that does have Spanish
language set (done once when Spanish appeared in the menu), save
under a new name, and delete all the text.
Something is seriously messed up with the language settings. Does
anyone have any idea what to look for?
That does work, but apparently I have to go into Tools> Options every
time I want to create a document in Spanish.
It is OOo 3.2.1, OOO320m18 (Build: 9502) on Fedora 14 x86_64. It was
installed by downloading from OOo, not from the repositories.
Hi John
Just a suggestion, could you make a template with the language set to
Spanish and use that for when you want to do a whole new Spanish document?
I have a collection of templates, and one of the first things I do with
any new install is enable the "New Document from Template" icon on the
Standard Toolbar.
Regards
Russell
