Description Jeff Fortin Tam 2021-03-21 00:09:47 UTC
Normally, the "Language" menu (traditionally found under "Tools" in the classic GUI) has this hierarchy:

Language >
- For Selection >
- For Paragraph >
- For All Text  >

...but the problem is that in the "Tabbed", "Tabbed Compact" and "Grouped Compact" toolbar modes, when you access this from the "Review" menubutton, you only get:

- For Selection >
- For Paragraph >
- For All Text  >

...without the "Language" grouping. So it's unclear to non-technical users what the "For" is for.

The easy fix would be, in that case, to group all these in a "Language >" submenu, just like in the traditional menu system, because it doesn't really make sense for them to stand alone otherwise.
