Language setting keeps changing in bilingual documents

Post by JPh1 »

I have documents with 2 languages, L1 and L2. I select everything in the document, set the language to be L1, and starts writing, but soon the document language changes to L2.
How can I set a document language so that it won't change?

Normally, any text you type gets associated with the language of the active keyboard layout.
If you use same keyboard layout to type text in multiple languages, you can enable the “Associate all new text with the following language” option in the “Tools | Default Language...” dialog.
