Contents
General overview
There's consensus that it should be possible to edit a document in rotation among several users with different OOo versions and localizations without any problems, especially without visibility of the different editors' OOo localizations.
Specifications
- Without regard of the localization of the used OOo, standard terms of the "document language" must be used in the document. For example:
- "Illustration" for image caption in a document with English language (not "Abbildung", even if you work with OOo_de)
- "Table of Contents" for a new index (not "Inhaltsverzeichnis", even if you work with OOo_de)
Possible solutions
Create a new document property: document standard language
For all actions this document standard language should be preselected.
- Advantages:
- That seems to be simple for the users
- Disadvantages
- That is not trivial.
- special "language packs" that contain the special terms used for automatic and semi-automatic functions like caption for objects must be available.
- That is not trivial.
Take language from paragraph
Problem: There is no general paragraph language, how should such selection work?
