Anyone know how to set up OpenOffice apps so that one could intermix input in 2 languages? Would like to be able to just strike a hot-key and toggle between English and Thai, and would prefer the hot key to be the left Windows key as it has no other use.
OpenOffice.org how to switch languages quickly?
Archived thread 277129 from Ubuntu Customization Guide. Markdown source: Ubuntu_Customization_Guide/thread_277129_OpenOffice.org_how_to_switch_languages_quickly.md
OpenOffice.org is great for that because it will switch automatic between the languages.
What you have to do is: Open writter go to Tools => Options Select Language Settings => Writing Aids Look at Options part and scroll down and check : Check in all languages
Hopefully this will help.
Best regards, Robert
Put your mouse on the top panel and right click on 'Add to Panel'. Next scroll down to Utilities and click on 'keyboard indicator'. That will allow you to switch between Thai and English, if both are set up.
When you select "Thai" as language used during the installation process of Ubuntu, one of the first questions is to define a hotkey to switch between latin and non-latin script during entering text. I never found a setup like this in Gnome. Does anyone know how to define such a hotkey?

Do this, then right click on the indicator (should show as "USA" or "Tha"), select "Keyboard Preferences", select the "Layout Options" tab, and open "Group Shift/Lock behavior". There you can activate "Left Win-key changes group."
Thank you very much!
Hello,
I want to recommend you about new software, LangOver version 5.0:
You can download it for FREE from here:
Have you ever tried to type in one language but the result was in another? Annoying, eh?!
Thats because the keyboard layout was in a wrong language, and you forgot to use "ALT+SHIFT"... NO MORE!
With LangOver 5.0 youll be able to convert your text quickly between languages. Just click F10 and your text will be fixed!
LangOver is free and Supports ANY language!
