--- Comment #6 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #5) > What exactly is the use case / scenario then? Besides convenience. I thought the title of the bug made it clear... It's more than about a use-case, it's a matter of principle: * It does not make sense that setting a direction also sets the language. * It does not make sense, and is not tolerable, that changing the direction of a run of text changes its font. In the attached document, the 12:35 should not appear in the CTL font. And at the very least, it should be easy to prevent that from happening, and easy to indicate it's in English rather than Hebrew (which would make it use the Western language group font). At the moment, it just can't be done: You can't say it's in English, and you can't set its font to the Western languages group font. (You could change the CTL font to the Western language font but that's a hack, not a solution.) (I'll also say that it's not obvious what the font selection logic for "None"-language text should be, but that also would be another bug.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
