This is the deliberate action. It is dictated the same idea as in bug 151290: the language assigned to the character run is *not* a formatting (even if implemented as such), but rather is part of the data. Agree with Mike, suggest closing as NOTABUG. (In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #2) > This is the deliberate action.

I get the idea that language assigned being conceptually different from formatting. However by all sorts of exceptions to the clear direct formatting option, it surely doesn't delete *all* formatting. Label doesn't match the result which makes it confusing. The key problem I have though, is the fact that I'm unable to undo certain action. If I introduce a "Char Locale" by incident (or more broadly a DF not cleared by clear direct formatting) I'm unable to clear this setting, and fallback to the document language In the case here I used a spell checker, and picked a different language from the drop down. I didn't realize the effect this would have (introduction of DF), although it makes sense in hindsight that such tagging happens. Instead I might added the word to the custom dictionary or using ignore option to prevent red wave line. If some English word appears in a Dutch text I sometimes pick some English dictionary to check if the English word spelled correctly(or me making a typo), not truly intending to affect the Char Locale at DF level Bottom line introducing Char Locale is too easy and/or removing such a tag to hard (or what I suspect: a one way route, if you introduce a char locale, you unable to remove this again). Off-topic: the clear direct formatting tool is often too rigorous. If I introduce Bold and Italic and Underline, and later on I decide I don't want Italic DF, I'm unable to do so specifically. I have to remove all DF, and reapply all the other DF *** Bug 145118 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
