I can type arabic fine with Hindi mentioned in the statusbar, so that isnt the problem. The only thing needed to type arabic in LO is to switch the text direction to RTL (only possible in CTL is enabled) and enable the arabic keyboard. When a user switches to RTL, the text language will still be English, but when switching the keyboard to arabic, then LO automatically switches it to Hindi, though a user can easily change this in the text language status field context menu or in the character dialog. I had watched the video twice on 07-30 to check if Mohammed was doing it right and it looked correct to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
