--- Comment #6 from christos at labs.epiuse.com ---
The tooltip for the language in the status bar is misleading when you use Calc
or Impress, but Calc allows you to set the language for all text. This seems
not to work when you have to go through the language settings dialog in order
to set the language "for the current document only", no matter whether you use
the status bar or the menu (Tools > Language > For All Text).

When this happens, one of the following should help.
- Typing into a cell
- Hitting F2 or putting the cursor into the input line and then changing cell
- Saving the file

On the other hand, copying (or cutting) and pasting does not seem to help.

Impress seems to have the same problem when you need to choose the language
from the Options - Language settings - Language dialog. (Again, it makes no
difference whether you start with the menu under Tools or on the status bar.)
In addition, when you choose a language available in the submenu (without
clicking on More in this submenu to go through the language settings dialog),
the language in that dialog is not updated, although the language for all text
is. For Impress I could not find a workaround.
