Description nahoo 2008-10-05 17:18:34 UTC
When opening an UTF-8 text written in persian, the points move to the other side
of the line (that is, form the left side, to the right one):

ie, if I would write it with latin letters, it would be something like that:

. foo bar baz

is mapped to

foo bar baz .

with the point at the right end, instead on at the left one.

For more information, please, see the original bug report and the screenshots.

Thanks.

  If you want to attach a test kit with multiple documents zip them into
  a single testkit.zip and attach the  testkit.zip
c) Contribute a document related step by step instruction containing every 
  key press and every mouse click how to reproduce your problem 
e) if possible contribute an instruction how to create a sample document 
  from the scratch
f) add information

  f6) AOO settings that might be related to your problems 
     (video hardware acceleration, ...)
  f7) how you launch AOO and how you opened the sample document
  f8) Whether your problem persists after you have renamed your user profile 
     (Quit Quickstart before!) before you launch AOO (please see

  f9) Whether that worked in former OOO / AOO Versions 
  f10) whether (and how) a competitor's software (MSO, LibreOffice, ...)
       fulfills your needs
 
Please do not cite these hints in your reply, but cite the items like:
