RTL language #11

Closed BorisKozo closed 8 years ago

BorisKozo commented 9 years ago

Is there a way to show RTL languages such as Hebrew as RTL? I installed the language pack and everything is reversed :)

Alexeiaven commented 8 years ago

the same. pack rus + heb - hebrew is reversed, russian is OK. Pebble time in English

TomaiMoneyhon commented 8 years ago

Hello i would also love this to be available. But for now if you want you can use the "notifications for pebble" which kind of fixes this.

BorisKozo commented 8 years ago

What is "notifications for pebble" and how does it fix the RTL problem?

TomaiMoneyhon commented 8 years ago

sorry i got the name wrong. it's "notification center for pebble" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.matejdro.pebblenotificationcenter)

what it does is that it replaces the default pebble notification system with this app (you must add it as a notification manager in the phones settings and remove pebble from there).

after installing hebrew it will recognize the hebrew and automatically position the text so that it's readable.

this solution is obviously not perfect (the text shown is inconsistant in each app and emoji can confuse the text)

but its the best solution i found for now....

Also it's important to note that i'd recommend also installing "Dialer for pebble" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.matejdro.pebbledialer&hl=en) because the system notifications of the pebble will be disabled.

I have already learned to read hebrew left-to-right :) It easier for me than you suggestions

Hello everybody. I do not plan to implement this feature anymore (at least for now), because another project already implemented it. Please head to elbbeP project page — they implemented proper RTL support, and they probably did it much better than I could do, because they do use RTL in their life. Also, when you use elbbeP firmware, you still can install custom language pack instead of theirs one. Language packs can be generated with my tool https://pebware.herokuapp.com/langs or with any other method. This is important if you want to have support for several languages, e.g. Hebrew+Russian.

BorisKozo commented 8 years ago

Semion,

I just wanted to say big Thank You for all the work you put into this project. It is not obvious that people spend their free time to help random strangers on the internet with OSS projects.

I will try elbbeP as you suggested.

MarSoft commented 8 years ago

Actually this project is still not dead, I have some ideas on new features, like enhanced quicklaunch capability, and will eventually implement them.
