Ah, many thanks!
So I am indeed to untalented. But this is very unintuitive and also no suitable
workflow when you have several fields. Without your help, I would have never
found out how to get the language right and the solution requires to open 2
dialogs. There should at least be a separate button to open the second dialog.
As it is is is badly hidden.

Since I cannot get rid of the Chinese characters, despite I assured that
everything is in English, it must be a bug. Can you please report it (since I
don't know a way to get the Chinese characters and thus cannot provide the
steps to reproduce).
