Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 77208
Implement Language Control for Writer Status Bar
Last modified: 2008-04-15 14:20:12 UTC
Changing the language attribute of text is a much too complicated task in OOo 2.2 today. Therefore a new control in the status bar of Writer will be introduced to show the language at the current cursor position/selection. Furthermore the entire document language can be changed.
cd: Accepted.
Link to spec.: http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/linguistic/Set_Language_Attribute_for_Text.odt
cd: Set target to OOo 2.x. OOo 2.3 is not realistic as this is a GSOC project.
cd: Set specification URL.
set target to 2.4 (like the CWS)
Très utile lorsque l'on fait des traductions, dans ce domaine Open Office est moins performant que Word.
Fixed in CWS langstatusbar for Writer and Writer drawing boxes.
TL->SBA: Since in the last few days CD and I, aside from implementing the missing parts, also cleaned up the code you have to test everything from scratch! For example I changed some code that calls the Format/Character dialog in order to get rid of some previous duplicated code. Thus potentially even that dialog may 'feature' a new problem. (Probably not though ^_~)
There is a follow-up for the unfinished parts of the spec: issue 82934.

TL->SBA: I changed the strings according to the yesterdays spec changes. Since I also changed the related UNO slot names and defines to match that (better code) please check all of the functionality again to make sure nothing is broken. Another note: The student implement some rather hard wired index calculation to see what the actual user selection was. It is not really change friendly but we had not the time to improve on that. But since there is much index and positional calculation please make sure to test the functionality also with a document with few languages. That is a document where the sub-menus do not contain the full set of 7 languages but only 3 to 5 to verify that the implementation does work properly with less languages as well.
SBA: Verified in CWS langstatusbar. Test cases will be attached to this issue. Test cases will be available online by next week, link in spec will point there as soon as test cases are uploaded.

OK in OOH680m12. Closed. Note that the "official" link to the test case is this: http://qa.openoffice.org/ooQAReloaded/TestcaseSpecifications/OpenOffice.org_2.4/Word_Processor/Set_Language_Attribute_for_Text.html
