            Bug ID: 127897
           Summary: Missing "Language->For Selection/Paragraph" under
                    Tools
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: difficultyBeginner, easyHack, needsUXEval, skillCpp
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Having Tools->Language->For Selection (and possibly For Paragraph) would be
useful in Impress, like in Writer. Having the status bar displaying current
selection languages (as in Writer, accompanying the menu function addition)
would be also a nice addition (but maybe worth a different issue).

A related issue is that "[] Ignore system input languages" under
Options->Language Settings->Languages has no effect in Impress, so its
unchecked state does not allow to have typed text have language defined in
system input (this problem should be filed separately).

The command "For Selection" should change the language of selected objects;
when inside a frame, it should affect the marked text span.

This should be handled both in Impress and Draw (which share much of the code).

The "For All Text" command was added in tdf#64047.
Writer handles its commands in SwTextShell::Execute
(sw/source/uibase/shells/textsh1.cxx; look for SID_LANGUAGE_STATUS).
