Bug #: 47143
Summary: activate support for "complex text layout" based on
user's keyboard layout
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Libreoffice
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Today I saw this bug in launchpad,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/274552
and just because of that I decided to make an account here and give a
suggestion to make LibreOffice even better!
That bug was reported because the user didn't know that he/she should activate
complex text layout (CTL) support before starting with LibreOffice. CTL support
is ESSENTIAL for users of RTL languages like Hebrew, Arabic, but it's not
active by default, and many users don't know how to activate it.
I think one good solution is to look for keyboard layouts in the system. If LO
finds keyboard layouts of certain languages, it will activate support for CTL.
Now the question is, is there any way in LibreOffice to find keyboard layouts
installed on the system? I know that this is very OS-specific, but I hope
something is already written for that. If yes, then this fix can be easily
implemented.
