Different behaviour in Mac between RTL and LTR, when using CMD + left/right and OPT + left/right #18

Hi,

The correct behaviour is when the block is LTR:

  1. CMD + left arrow = Home (move cursor to start of block)
  2. CMD + right arrow = End (move cursor to end of block)
  3. OPT + left arrow = move cursor one word backwards
  4. OPT + right arrow = move cursor one word forwards

However, when the block is in RTL mode, this doesn't work.

Ideally, this will be implemented similarly to the LTR behaviour, but with the arrows switched, i.e.:

  1. CMD + left arrow = End (move cursor to end of block)
  2. CMD + right arrow = Home (move cursor to start of block)
  3. OPT + left arrow = move cursor one word forwards
  4. OPT + right arrow = move cursor one word backwards

@ahangarha, I would be happy to tip money to have this implemented

Thanks for sharing the issue.

Let's clarify the issue. What is the current behavior?

  1. The key combination doesn't work at all (the cursor doesn't move on RTL text)
  2. The key combination works but is opposite to the expected direction.

The current behaviour is what you described in option 1. The key combo doesn't work at all.

e.g. when I press CMD + right arrow, it goes just one char to the right (and not to the edge of the block), as if I only pressed on the right arrow.
