rendering persian text is wrong

[metif12]

in persian characters have "Contextual forms". also persian is right to left so first character goose right not left. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persian_alphabet i think rendering would be wrong in arabic too.

What did you do?

import ui

fn main() {
	ui.message_box('سلام دنیا')
}

What did you expect to see?

What did you see instead?

Does manually setting a font path like in https://github.com/vlang/ui/issues/353#issuecomment-859260821 work?

setting a persian font not help. you can use this open source font for testing with: "سلام دنیا"

fn main() {
    println('سلام دنیا')
}

doesn't print correctly in terminal on my pc, so I guess this is not a problem of v-ui but v. please file an issue to https://github.com/vlang/v/issues

hi. i already open this issue on v too. https://github.com/vlang/v/issues/10825

but in your case i think its because terminals not support persian correctly (rendering text in terminal is happen by terminal it self not by v), try

 echo 'سلام دنیا'
