--- Comment #36 from Caolán McNamara <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Yotam Benshalom from comment #35) > The problem indeed disappears, along with the cursor indicator, when running: > export SAL_DISABLE_CURSOR_INDICATOR=1 && > /opt/libreofficedev7.4/program/soffice > > In case the issue is not resolved, can this behaviour stay in place? the variable for workaround can certainly stay in place until some proper solution is arrived at. > FWIW, I don't really understand the reason behind the current implementation > of the cursor direction indicator. RTL is not my specialty, my understanding is that if the arrow is pointing left then if a RTL char is entered it will appear at the point indicated to the left, if the arrow is pointing right then if a LTR char is entered it will appear at the point to the right. Something like gedit instead uses a split-cursor and shows two cursors with arrows to show both locations a char might appear if there is ambiguity where a char would appear depending on its classification once entered. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
