Automatic right to left language support #757

Open forabi opened 3 months ago

Have you read a contributing guide?

Clear and concise description of the problem

When typing text in an RTL language (e.g. Arabic), many apps will automatically switch the text direction to be RTL. It would be very helpful if Anytype implemented a similar feature.

Suggested solution

Many apps supporting this will use some heuristics to determine whether the paragraph/block should switch to RTL, for example, based on the first couple characters or the percentage of RTL characters to the overall characters in the same block.

Alternative

Provide a switch on the block-level to manually switch between RTL and LTR

Hi Anytype Team,

I hope you’re doing well.

First off, I just want to say I absolutely love Anytype! It’s such an amazing app, and it’s been super helpful for my daily tasks. Great job!

However, as an Iranian user who uses Persian, I’m having some trouble with the lack of RTL (right-to-left) support. It’s a bit frustrating not being able to properly align and format my text. It would be awesome if you could add RTL language support in future updates.

Adding this feature would make a huge difference for me and many other users who rely on RTL languages. Thanks a lot for considering this request!
