Bug ID: 155078
Summary: Support text-direction being adaptive to the text
content of each paragraph
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In several applications/operating systems with multi-paragraph text fields, the
direction of each paragraph (=line-break-separated stretch) of text is
determined by the _contexts_ of that paragraph. Typically (but not always) the
first strong-directionality character of the paragraph sets its direction.
This should be supported in LibreOffice - as another option in addition to LTR,
RTL and "Use superordinate object dir". It allows users to avoid having to
explicitly set directions back and forth when switching from one paragraph to
the next. It would be particularly useful in Calc cells and single-paragraph
Draw/Impress objects.
Also, I think MS Office has this, at least in Excel cells.
