--- Comment #4 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Regina Henschel from comment #3) > "left" and "right" makes no sense for traditional east Asian top-to-bottom > writing mode, because lines are arranged from right to left, but "start" and > "end" makes sense for that writing mode. Hmm. Right. But - they still make sense for both LTR, RTL, and mixed RTL-LTR documents. > A larger problem in line numbering dialog are the settings "inner" and > "outer". The wording "inner" and "outer" do not describe a physical position > but a position relative to the binding edge, and that depends on the writing > mode. Also possibly relevant, for sure. > Currently "inner" and "outer" are exchanged for RTL. > And "inner" and "outer" makes no sense for traditional east Asian > top-to-bottom writing mode, because the binding edge is neither at start nor > at end of a line. Well... pages could be bound at the top or the bottom, at least in principle. But AFAICT we don't support this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
