| Extension can integrate options pages in the options dialog | i75869 | Options Dialog for Extensions | An extension may require to be configured before it can be used reasonably or in order to adapt it to personal preferences. For example, a spell checker extension could be configured to use different sets of grammar rules, a clock extension could be configured to show twelve or twenty four hours, etc. Configuring the extension should be as easy as possible for the user. That is, a dialog should be used rather then some obscure configuration files which need to be edited. And, of course, this dialog should be easily accessible, that is, it needs to be found intuitively.Future extensions shall be able to integrate own options pages into the options dialog. An options page is similar to a dialog but is lacking the title bar and border so that it can be shown in a parent window, which is the option dialog. The options dialog can also be started from the Extension Manager, in which case it shows only the options pages of the selected extension. | Joachim Lingner (JL) | speclink | framework |

| Language Guessing | i73173 | Automatic Language Guessing Component | The following component allows to determine the langue of a (selected) text.
