Description

Environment
  • TeXstudio: 2.12.10
  • Qt: 5.11.1
  • OS: Ubuntu 18.1
  • TeX distribution: texlive
Expected behavior

When changing the language the thesaurus database should change with it.

Actual behavior

The database set on the settings is fixed (as far I can tell, since leaving the path for the thesaurus doesn't detect the thesaurus file automatically). Perhaps, using the same name convention with the languages.

How to reproduce

Set two languages on the dictionary path, with two thesaurus (one each). Changing languages doesn't change the thesaurus automatically.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in TeXstudio 2.12.10 on Ubuntu with texlive by configuring two dictionaries and thesauri, then changing the selected language. Inspect the thesaurus path settings and language-change behavior; done means the matching thesaurus database is selected automatically when the language changes.
