Bug ID: 172166
Summary: Direction control should be somewhere on the format
menu or submenus
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needsUXEval
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: UI

The Format menu has lots and lots of character and paragraph properties one can
choose and apply or modify (perhaps even too many.) But - even though it covers
changes as quaint as tOGGLING tHE cASE - it does not offer the ability of
changing the direction of a paragraph.
Now, this is not a critical issue: One can change direction using keyboard
shortcuts or toolbar buttons, available by default. But then - this is true for
a lot of other properties. Example: demote and promote of list items, which can
easily be affected using Tab and Alt-Tab, and highly visible toolbar buttons.
You might also say: "But the Format menu is already rather cluttered/full of
stuff". Well, maybe, but the alignment submenu isn't. So, we could make it
"Alignment & Direction" or "Align & Direct", and add the RTL/LTR controls below
the different alignment options.
