It is quite usual to have presentations in different languages. The normal way would be to create or adapt templates in different languages for the presentations, setting the default proofing language accordingly. However due to any every lasting bug the proofing language settings in the master slides are ignored. Default is always the system default, which extremely in practical.

When will this be fixed? Why does this take so long?
