            Bug ID: 122834
           Summary: EDITING Very annoying to change the language of the
                    selections
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: kiv at mail.orbitel.bg

In the past versions of LibreOffice when I put my cursor on some word I could
see in the bottom part of the Writer window the language of the word.
This was very helpful especially if some one like me is working frequently with
documents written on more than one languages.
But in LibreOffice 6.1.4.2 this hint about the language of the word is removed
from the bottom of the Writer window.
Now when I have some word underlined in red, I can not understood in which
Language it is.
Now I can click with the right button of the mouse on the word, then click
again on the "language of the selection" and only then I can change it to some
other language.
But if the word is not underlined in red by the spell checker it is not
possible at all.
Also it is very annoying that I can change the language word by word only. If I
try to select by the mouse some bigger part from the text - consisting 2 or
more words, then this possibility is not available.
So instead to change the language of let say 50 words at once I am enforced to
change their language one by one 50 times by right clicking every word 3 times!
Please possibly consider this to be possible easier as in past versions of the
Libreoffice as current behaviour makes users much less productive when working
with more languages in their documents.
