RTL Spaces Positioning
When typing in Arabic (right-to-left), Writer incorrectly places spaces that
follow Arabic words in at least two scenarios:
A) WHEN THERE IS ONLY ONE ARABIC WORD IN LINE (PARAGRAPH)
Steps to reproduce:
1. Switch to RTL mode (shift-command-D) and make sure Nonprinting Characters
are hidden.
2. Type one Arabic word, e.g. اختبار
3. Press space bar and notice how spaces are placed before the word!
4. View Nonprinting Characters (command-F10) and the spaces are correctly
placed, i.e. after the word.
B) WHEN ENGLISH WORDS ARE PRECEDED BY ARABIC ONES
Steps to reproduce:
1. Switch to RTL mode (shift-command-D) and make sure Nonprinting Characters
are hidden.
2. Type some Arabic words, e.g. هذا اختبار
3. Press space bar then type some English words, e.g. Test Two
4. Notice how the Writer does not put the space between Arabic and English text
5. View Nonprinting Characters (command-F10) and now the space appears in the
correct position between the two texts.
The two attached screenshots visualize this bug.
