| − | = Language Selection Statusbar Control =
| |
| | | | |
| − | This is a Google Summer Of Code project which will provide the OpenOffice.org community the language selection status bar control. It's planned that the feature will be part of OpenOffice.org 2.4.
| |

| |
| − | == Motivation ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Currently OpenOffice.org doesn't provide an easy way to change the language of a word, paragraph or text selection within the Writer application. The user has to use the menu and a multi-tab dialog to choose the appropriate language. A status bar control which provides this function would greatly enhance usability for people who have to work with multiple language documents.
| |

| |
| − | == Specification ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | We have a final specification for this feature from the User Experience team. You can find the final specification [http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/linguistic/Set_Language_Attribute_for_Text.odt here]. For the Google Summer Of Code project only a subset will be implemented (status bar control only).

| − | === Test Documents ===
| |
| − | Some test documents for the status bar control and/or language guessing.
| |
| − | In the larger one the language is usually set wrong in order to test language guessing though.
| |
| − | To test language guessing just right click on a wrong word and see the entry for the paragraph language.
