RTL issue when FlowDirection set to RightToLeft

Open adirh3 opened this issue 11 months ago • 4 comments

When using RTL text with FlowDirection = FlowDirection.RightToLeft the text is displayed inversed. How it should look (works with TextBox) - image

How it is with TextEditor - image

To reproduce -

<ave:TextEditor Text="בדיקה בעברית" FlowDirection="FlowDirection.RightToLeft" />

Thanks!

Looks like VisualLines have a mirror transform applied

FYI it happens with English text as well, it just flips everything I guess

we currently are working on some RTL project and tried to use AvaloniaEdit in that matter . @adirh3 i recommend you check up the RTL branch of https://github.com/ablibrary-net/AvaloniaEdit . we might aswell PR if it feels stable .

current issues in our RTL branch :

  • Selections of texts not being shown correctly
  • any mix RTL LTR might get unstable results
  • ... we only have intention of plain text viewing (books , texts , etc. )
