[Issue 127977] New: delete unused languages
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127977
Issue ID: 127977
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: delete unused languages
Product: Calc
Version: 4.1.6
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 (lowest)
Component: formatting
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: Traceyad2032@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I need to be able to delete/hide unused languages (see forum ref below).
-<OR>-
Enable the <status bar>Language feature/option in Calc that is available in
Writer.
When choosing to (use/change/switch between) Spanish and/or English I have to
scroll through ALL the other languages in between.
I chose to NOT install all languages except English and Spanish, but they all
show up anyway.
Thanks, Tracey

I disagree with this. AOO is an international project and all languages should
be kept.

I do NOT think that you can un-install languages because the text is in
Unicode.
Just-a-thought, Tracey

I added: Issue 128001 (This is what I really need/want)
Please read the entire post :-)
I do agree with your logic [IF] the language option was implemented in the calc
[status bar].
To answer your question (assuming that the language option <<<CAN NOT>>> be
implimented in calc [status bar]:
> When I download Open Office I have to choose a language (I assume the UI Language).
> When installing Open Office I have a choice of any/all/no language dictionaries to install.
> If I choose a select one/few dictionaries, why do I want to have to wade through all the other languages in order to make language changes to my documents/spreadsheets?
I am totally baffled as to why it was not implemented from the beginning (I
assumed there was an problem which is why I created this issue).
Maybe it is a programming nightmare to implement or no one ever asked for
it!!!???
I am sooo hoping that the Language option/functionality in the writer [status
bar] can be implemented in calc [status bar].
Thanks, Tracey
I agree all languages should be available, but if the <<<ONLY>> option to add a
language to a spread sheet is scrolling through the entire list then this is an
inefficient way to do it.
Even just using the first letter of a language is tedious.
I am going to flag this as resolved.
I think this my only option, but it should be [closed by submitter] because the
issue is not resolved as of yet.
If they reject my [Issue 128001] request then I will re-open this issue.

I don't see no benefit to uninstall unused languages
What is the behavior if you open a document with language not installed?

I am not sure what you are thinking.
Did you read the post to the ooforum before you made the comment (if not,
please click on the link for topic 96366)?
I have no problem with all languages being available.
I just use a select few (English, Spanish) at the present and:
#1 The language option that is available in the task bar of the writer
application is NOT available in calc application.
There may have been a good reason for this.
#2 What is the purpose of "choosing" what languages I want to install when I
have to scroll through a list of uninstalled languages in order to
choose/switch between the languages I have installed???
Scrolling though a list of un-installed langues is not a feature.
My preference is to add the language feature functionality (of writer's task
bar) to the calc task bar, but it may have been deliberately left out because
of... (???).
As an alternative, only display/list the languages that have been
CHOSEN/installed for spell check purposes and hide the others.
Thanks, Tracey

Additionally my language issue was solely regarding spell check.
I had ask before that only the document languages should appear and the ability
for languages to be added, but that was blown off :-(
Just FYI, Tracey
