Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 91713
Paragraph selection (to set text language) does not work, depending on selection direction

How it works well: - Load bugdoc - Select the yellow part "bottom-up" (With mouse or keyboard) - Click on Language control in status bar - Set Language for Paragraph - More... -> Now the "Format Character" dialog comes up and the two paragraphs get selected entirely (As expected). To see the problem: - Select the yellow part "top-down" - Click on Language control in status bar - Set Language for Paragraph - More... -> Now the "Format Character" dialog comes up but the two paragraphs do not get selected at all (only the paragraph mark in the middle). So the selection direction influences the correct paragraph selection.
Small variation, similar outcome: Load bugdoc - Select the green part top-down (then you have two paras partly, the middle one entirely selected) - Language control in status bar - Set Language for Paragraph - More... -> Only the middle paragraph gets selected. Note: After commintting changes via Format Character dialog at this point (Text size is easy to see), the original selection gets restored.
