--- Comment #8 from Oded Arbel <o...@geek.co.il> --- Well, supporting an RTL global document layout - as an option that will be only be useful to some users - is kind of what this report is all about. 😄 The issue I have is that - as part of my programming work - I sometimes need to edit simple text documents that are BiDi (and predominantly RTL with minority of strong LTR text), often with JSON formatting (or other formats that Kate is usually really good with) and doing that in Kate is a huge mess, with lines sometimes right aligned and sometimes left aligned to the point that it is too much extra effort to use Kate. My workaround is to work mostly in a bad editor (which can be as simple as an HTML textarea set with dir=RTL) and copy back and forth to Kate. I would love to ditch that workflow and use Kate exclusively by being able to view some documents with a text layout of RTL. I'm not suggesting setting the QGuiApplication.layoutDirection - in things like QTextEdit there used to be an option to set the direction layout of just the text itself, so something like that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
