Hello @arcqus,
Please clarify on which OS do you reproduce the issue?

Hi @DmitriiV
I’m now running linux mint with OO 8.3.

Alright, thank you for clarification. We are analyzing the issue

I’m getting the same error in OnlyOffice Writer. As soon as I start typing, the language settings for it disappear. Spell checking only works if I highlight the text and manually set the correct language.
I am using Linux Debian 12 and OnlyOffice version 8.3.0.97 installed via extrepo.

Also getting the same issue after updating to OO 8.3.0. It seems to switch the spell checking language to my keyboard layout/language (configured using KDE Settings, not localectl).

OS: Arch Linux 6.13.2
DE: KDE 6
OO Version: 8.3.0.97 (Flatpak)
