Indeed, this would involve the application having to decide how to read an arbitrary pre-existing document. Which of course could be done for convenience (guessing based on fonts, etc), but such functionality should be optional, as it’s inevitably far from foolproof, and most users won’t need it at all. Perhaps as an add-on? > However, there is the question of setting the default direction... Text direction sounds like something that should be controlled via _text style_ property. So, let those interested add a feature request for this. Makes sense. Once the feature itself is implemented, the solution for newly created documents will be straightforward: the correct place to set text style properties would be Default style in the relevant New Document template. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
