Arabic and rigth to left languages #19

Closed Tembac closed 9 years ago

Tembac commented 9 years ago

Hello Lars,

I'm having problems with Arab text. A client sent me the following text to test translating to arabic but he says that the text is showing in the other direction:

ولكنهما لم تيكونا وحدهما في استكشاف الزنازين...

(Github is not allowing me to post arab text on the correct order. It should have the tree dots to the left. Same problem with firetongue)

I don't know if this is something that has to be fixed from the export phase or from firetongue.

Are you sure that this is a firetongue issue (which only handles the internal data storage and fetching of text) and not an issue with OpenFL's (or whatever framework you are using) graphical textfield display?

mmm, I'm not sure. Haha.

It is probably a problem of openfl.

Made a question here. http://community.openfl.org/t/arabic-or-left-to-right-text/1506

It was a problem of openfl. The fix is on the forum post.
