Windows keyboard input language switches automatically from german to english if opening "add key" dialoge window

[anonymous]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Windows is in german (or other non-english) keyboard input language
2. OSM used in german laguage or other non-english langage
3. Open in the dialogs on the rigth side the "Tags/memberships" dialog
4. select any object
5. select "Hinzufügen" ("Add" in english version) button

What is the expected result?

Windows operang system keyboard input language stays unchanged / for me: german.

What happens instead?

Windows keyboard language scheme switches to english (until leaving the dialog window switches back to german). This affects all other windows inputs until the add kes windwo is closed.
The bug works for other non-english languages as Spanish too.
So the german keyboard layout is no longer used but the englisch one. Then, certain letters are assigned to other keyboard keys or not available at all like german "umlauts" ö/ä/ü.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

Sounds like you changed some settings for the add tag dialog. Please, take a careful look at the context menu of the dialog (right mouse click below the key/value)

Thanks, it solved it for me. Indeed there is a option tho have english language as a "standard for the feature". I certainly did never acitvate this (at least willingly).
I do not mark the ticket as "solved" however because such hidden featores are no good. It is not shown anwhere that you are in that mode or that it exists at all. Globally choosing user language in the "preferences" menu should not have unexpected hidden exceptions. Please consider if it has any real use.

Sincerely
Andy
