[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772520]
Reproducible on: Version: 7.3.0.3 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 0f246aa12d0eee4a0f7adcefbf7c878fc2238db3 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR); UI: fr-FR Calc: CL -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772520 Title: [upstream] Font metrics mixed up when selecting Arabic characters in Writer Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In most fonts, many characters in the Arabic script change their width and height as typing progresses. For example the letter ب (U+0628) is reduced to about a half or even a third of its width if it's followed by another character such as ا (U+0627): با. Usually LibreOffice understands the changes in font metrics pretty well but not always. See the attached screenshot where I've written the sentence "مرحبا يا صديقي العزيز" in Writer and started selecting letters from the beginning of the line. The selection shown in the screenshot looks like the whole first word plus the following space but actually it only covers the first 4 letters of the first word out of 5 total: مرحب. From a user's point of view, this is very confusing, as I can't tell how far I've already selected without counting the characters in my mind. Even more surprisingly, LibreOffice Calc shows the selection as expected, i.e. different from Writer, so this does not feel like a font problem per se, although only some fonts display this behavior. The font I'm using in this example is Scheherazade, available through a third-party repository at packages.sil.org. The font is designed to cover a very wide variety of characters used for Arabic-script minority languages in both Asia and Africa, and in many cases it's the only professionally made font available for people working on many of these languages.

The problem seems to have been resolved on LO 7.3.0.3 on Windows 10. To test PDF output this time, I used Adobe Acrobat DC 2021.011.20039 64-bit.

For example, see the attached PDF created with Writer, where the example sentence "اشترى بلال خمسة آلاف كتاب وَأَنَا اشْتَرَيْتُهَا مِنْهُ" looks as it should, but when you view it with any PDF reader, such as evince, copying the text deforms most of the words. Some characters are clearly visible but cannot be selected or searched (such as ى at the end of the first word اشترى). If I search for the second word بلال, evince tells me there are no matches in the document. The same happens when converting the file with pdftotext, which produces the following output: اشتر للا مسة لفا كتاب وَأَنَا ْ ه اشت َ َريْتُهَا ِ من ْ ُ Here only two of the seven words are intact, the rest are garbled in one way or another.

This particular problem seems to have been resolved on LO 7.3.0.3 on Windows 10. Rotating these and other Arabic-script characters does not work as expected (sometimes the text won't rotate at all or if it does, the letters are in reversed order) but these seem to be separate issues.

In reality, these glyphs are not found in DejaVu Sans but had to be substituted from another font, in my case Scheherazade (from fonts- sil-scheherazade, available through packages.sil.org). After rotating the letters by 90 degrees, everything looked fine on the screen but when I created a PDF, everything was displaced about one inch upwards and one inch to the left. See the attached screenshot, where everything looks fine, and the PDF where all the letters are displaced. If I change the font setting for this text to Scheherazade, everything looks fine even in a generated PDF. So apparently LibreOffice gets confused by the different font metrics of the two fonts, the one selected by the user and the one used as the real source for the glyphs.

Many multipurpose fonts, which are not designed specifically for Arabic, place some of these marks in the empty space between lines, outside of the space reserved for line height. Writing Arabic in LibreOffice Writer, these marks don't become visible while typing but only after the page view has changed once. See the attached series of screenshots, where the first screenshot has been taken while typing. The first letter of the first word (reading from right to left) should have two diacritical marks: ء and a diagonal line above the letter: أَ. Only the lower half of the ء mark is visible and the diagonal line not at all. The second letter of the same word has a circle on top of it but only the lower half of it is visible. Equally so for the third word of the sentence بِبَرْنَامِجِ, where the last letter of the word has a diagonal line below, but it is not visible at all. The second screenshot has been taken after I scrolled the page down by a couple of screens and then scrolled back. Now all the diacritics are shown as they should. In the third screenshot I have deleted all of the text I typed but as you can see, some parts of the diacritics are still visible above the line. If I scroll down and back, they would disappear. If you want to test it yourself, the sentence I wrote reads "أَكْتُبُ هُنَا بِبَرْنَامِجِ لِيبَرْ أُفِيسْ". As a user, I would expect the diacritics to be visible as soon as I type them, and for them to be removed from the screen immediately when I delete the word.

Title:
[upstream] Automatic cell alignment in Calc breaks with bidi-neutral
characters
Status in LibreOffice:
Confirmed
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Calc seems to assign the alignment of any particular text cell based
on the contents of the cell: if the first character is a LTR
character, the cell is aligned to the left, and if the first character
is RTL, the cell is aligned to the right. This is desirable behavior
but it breaks when the first character is neutral, i.e. a character
that behaves as RTL in an RTL context and as LTR in a LTR context.
See the attached screenshot where cell A1 "abc" is automatically
aligned to the left and cell A2 "ابت" to the right. When I surround
these strings with parentheses, which are bidi-neutral characters, in
A3 and A4, both are aligned to the left. For some reason, even font
metrics break with this assignment, as the last character of the
Arabic string overlaps visually with the closing parenthesis (I think
this is a separate issue and I’ll file it as such).
In column C, I have copied the contents of column A but changed the
directionality setting of cell C4 manually to RTL through Format Cells
> Text direction. Here the cell is properly aligned to the right and
the closing parenthesis does not overlap with the last character of
the string.
According to the Unicode standard, neutral characters should not
affect directionality, and that’s what I would expect as a user, too.
I think the best solution would be for Calc to skip all neutral
characters in the beginning of the string and just consider the first
strong character for cell alignment. Even better, Calc could use this
heuristics to assign full text directionality for the cell, not just
change alignment. Right now, if you start the cell with an RTL
character followed by a LTR inset and then continue with RTL again,
the substrings are ordered as in a LTR context ("FIRST second THIRD"),
not as in true RTL ("THIRD second FIRST").

Tested again on LibreOffice 7.3.0.3 on Windows 10. Now the formula line looks good but all LTR cells in the main view have font metrics mixed up, whether I'm currently typing them or not. For some reason, cells starting with a RTL character that Calc automatically aligns to the right behave as they should, although they're still not truly RTL, as the order of mixed LTR/RTL elements is wrong.

Title:
[upstream] Automatic cell alignment in Calc breaks with bidi-neutral
characters
Status in LibreOffice:
Confirmed
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Calc seems to assign the alignment of any particular text cell based
on the contents of the cell: if the first character is a LTR
character, the cell is aligned to the left, and if the first character
is RTL, the cell is aligned to the right. This is desirable behavior
but it breaks when the first character is neutral, i.e. a character
that behaves as RTL in an RTL context and as LTR in a LTR context.
See the attached screenshot where cell A1 "abc" is automatically
aligned to the left and cell A2 "ابت" to the right. When I surround
these strings with parentheses, which are bidi-neutral characters, in
A3 and A4, both are aligned to the left. For some reason, even font
metrics break with this assignment, as the last character of the
Arabic string overlaps visually with the closing parenthesis (I think
this is a separate issue and I’ll file it as such).
In column C, I have copied the contents of column A but changed the
directionality setting of cell C4 manually to RTL through Format Cells
> Text direction. Here the cell is properly aligned to the right and
the closing parenthesis does not overlap with the last character of
the string.
According to the Unicode standard, neutral characters should not
affect directionality, and that’s what I would expect as a user, too.
I think the best solution would be for Calc to skip all neutral
characters in the beginning of the string and just consider the first
strong character for cell alignment. Even better, Calc could use this
heuristics to assign full text directionality for the cell, not just
change alignment. Right now, if you start the cell with an RTL
character followed by a LTR inset and then continue with RTL again,
the substrings are ordered as in a LTR context ("FIRST second THIRD"),
not as in true RTL ("THIRD second FIRST").

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1847126] Re: Glyphs for space and basic punctuation not substituted from other fonts
Thanks for your advice. I did what you suggested and everything worked as expected. After some experimentation, I think I found the cause of the problem, too: What I had previously installed on my system was the full font package called "OldHungarian_0.5.zip" available on Github under "Releases". This package contains two different TTF fonts with different file names (OldHungarian.ttf and OldHungarian_Full.ttf) but with identical font names (OldHungarian). The latter includes Latin punctuation, the former doesn't. Now as both fonts were installed in the same folder /usr/local/share/fonts/, it created some sort of conflict, so that LO thought the glyphs for punctuation were there although in reality it used the non-full version for display. If I remove either one of the font files or copy only the full version to my own ~/.fonts folder, things work fine. If I copy only the non-full version to my local folder but leave copies of both in the system-wide folder, I get the same behavior as in my initial report. So an easy workaround is available and seems that the underlying problem is different from what I initially thought. Now back to the underlying issue: Any thoughts on whether the way the system handles the font conflict is a LO issue or e.g. Gnome or X11? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1847126 Title: Glyphs for space and basic punctuation not substituted from other fonts Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I recently noticed a regression in how LibreOffice Writer handles font substitutions for basic ASCII punctuation including space (U+0020). For test purposes, I wrote a document in the Old Hungarian script and used a font called "OldHungarian" from https://github.com/OldHungarian /old-hungarian-font to display the text. The font is designed to cover only the characters in the Old Hungarian block (U+10C80 to U+10CFF) plus a couple of punctuation marks that might not be available in all fonts such as ⹁ (U+2E41 REVERSED COMMA) and ⹂ (U+2E42 DOUBLE LOW- REVERSED-9 QUOTATION MARK). The font doesn't include glyphs for anything else such as basic Latin letters or Latin punctuation.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1847126] [NEW] Glyphs for space and basic punctuation not substituted from other fonts
Public bug reported: I recently noticed a regression in how LibreOffice Writer handles font substitutions for basic ASCII punctuation including space (U+0020). For test purposes, I wrote a document in the Old Hungarian script and used a font called "OldHungarian" from https://github.com/OldHungarian/old- hungarian-font to display the text. The font is designed to cover only the characters in the Old Hungarian block (U+10C80 to U+10CFF) plus a couple of punctuation marks that might not be available in all fonts such as ⹁ (U+2E41 REVERSED COMMA) and ⹂ (U+2E42 DOUBLE LOW-REVERSED-9 QUOTATION MARK). The font doesn't include glyphs for anything else such as basic Latin letters or Latin punctuation. Normally, LibreOffice is supposed to find substitute glyphs for characters that are not included in the current font but for some reason it fails to do so with the OldHungarian font for all the basic punctuation from U+0020 (SPACE) to U+002F (SOLIDUS), U+003A (COLON) to U+0040 (COMMERCIAL AT) and U+007B (LEFT CURLY BRACKET) to U+007E (TILDE). Latin letters a-z and A-Z as well as numbers 0-9 work fine. See the attached screenshot, where I've included a sentence in English in the middle of Old Hungarian text and set OldHungarian as the font for the whole selection. English letters show up ok as well as spaces in between them. Spaces and punctuation between words in the Old Hungarian script show up as boxes. I don't use Old Hungarian on a daily basis, so I don't know exactly when this regression happened but I'm sure things worked as expected when I submitted bug #1804657 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1804657 for 6.1.3.2 (installed as a snap).

The font I had used in the rest of the document was DejaVu Sans, so I used that font setting even for these characters. In reality, these glyphs are not found in DejaVu Sans but had to be substituted from another font, in my case Scheherazade (from fonts- sil-scheherazade, available through packages.sil.org). After rotating the letters by 90 degrees, everything looked fine on the screen but when I created a PDF, everything was displaced about one inch upwards and one inch to the left. See the attached screenshot, where everything looks fine, and the PDF where all the letters are displaced. If I change the font setting for this text to Scheherazade, everything looks fine even in a generated PDF. So apparently LibreOffice gets confused by the different font metrics of the two fonts, the one selected by the user and the one used as the real source for the glyphs.

Many multipurpose fonts, which are not designed specifically for Arabic, place some of these marks in the empty space between lines, outside of the space reserved for line height. Writing Arabic in LibreOffice Writer, these marks don't become visible while typing but only after the page view has changed once. See the attached series of screenshots, where the first screenshot has been taken while typing. The first letter of the first word (reading from right to left) should have two diacritical marks: ء and a diagonal line above the letter: أَ. Only the lower half of the ء mark is visible and the diagonal line not at all. The second letter of the same word has a circle on top of it but only the lower half of it is visible. Equally so for the third word of the sentence بِبَرْنَامِجِ, where the last letter of the word has a diagonal line below, but it is not visible at all. The second screenshot has been taken after I scrolled the page down by a couple of screens and then scrolled back. Now all the diacritics are shown as they should. In the third screenshot I have deleted all of the text I typed but as you can see, some parts of the diacritics are still visible above the line. If I scroll down and back, they would disappear. If you want to test it yourself, the sentence I wrote reads "أَكْتُبُ هُنَا بِبَرْنَامِجِ لِيبَرْ أُفِيسْ". As a user, I would expect the diacritics to be visible as soon as I type them, and for them to be removed from the screen immediately when I delete the word.

Some characters are clearly visible but cannot be selected or searched (such as ى at the end of the first word اشترى). If I search for the second word بلال, evince tells me there are no matches in the document. The same happens when converting the file with pdftotext, which produces the following output: اشتر للا مسة لفا كتاب وَأَنَا ْ ه اشت َ َريْتُهَا ِ من ْ ُ Here only two of the seven words are intact, the rest are garbled in one way or another.

For example the letter ب (U+0628) is reduced to about a half or even a third of its width if it's followed by another character such as ا (U+0627): با. Usually LibreOffice understands the changes in font metrics pretty well but not always. See the attached screenshot where I've written the sentence "مرحبا يا صديقي العزيز" in Writer and started selecting letters from the beginning of the line. The selection shown in the screenshot looks like the whole first word plus the following space but actually it only covers the first 4 letters of the first word out of 5 total: مرحب. From a user's point of view, this is very confusing, as I can't tell how far I've already selected without counting the characters in my mind. Even more surprisingly, LibreOffice Calc shows the selection as expected, i.e. different from Writer, so this does not feel like a font problem per se, although only some fonts display this behavior. The font I'm using in this example is Scheherazade, available through a third-party repository at packages.sil.org. The font is designed to cover a very wide variety of characters used for Arabic-script minority languages in both Asia and Africa, and in many cases it's the only professionally made font available for people working on many of these languages.

Yes, the justification issue appears to have been fixed in the snap I just installed (6.1.3.2) but I noticed there is another regression: double-clicking on text should select the whole word under the cursor. In 6.0.6.2, this feature works well for both of the languages of this test case (Gothic and Old Hungarian) but in 6.1.3.2, selecting Old Hungarian words is broken. When you double-click on Old Hungarian, only the individual character under the cursor is selected, not the whole word. Gothic seems to be working fine.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1800650] [NEW] gedit highlights indexes of multidimensional arrays as comments in Perl mode
Public bug reported:
In gedit's Perl highlight mode, variables of all kinds ($var, %hash,
@array etc.) are highlighted in dark green. The same usually works for
the last index of an array as well ($#array) but only if the array is
one-dimensional. With multidimensional arrays, the proper syntax is more
complicated: $#{$array[0]} should give the last index of the first
element of an array of arrays. Here gedit however interprets the number
sign (#) as the mark of a comment and highlights the rest of the line in
blue. The expected behavior would be to highlight $#{$array[0]} in dark
green like all other variables. See the attached screenshot.

Title:
Automatic cell alignment in Calc breaks with bidi-neutral characters
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Calc seems to assign the alignment of any particular text cell based
on the contents of the cell: if the first character is a LTR
character, the cell is aligned to the left, and if the first character
is RTL, the cell is aligned to the right. This is desirable behavior
but it breaks when the first character is neutral, i.e. a character
that behaves as RTL in an RTL context and as LTR in a LTR context.
See the attached screenshot where cell A1 "abc" is automatically
aligned to the left and cell A2 "ابت" to the right. When I surround
these strings with parentheses, which are bidi-neutral characters, in
A3 and A4, both are aligned to the left. For some reason, even font
metrics break with this assignment, as the last character of the
Arabic string overlaps visually with the closing parenthesis (I think
this is a separate issue and I’ll file it as such).
In column C, I have copied the contents of column A but changed the
directionality setting of cell C4 manually to RTL through Format Cells
> Text direction. Here the cell is properly aligned to the right and
the closing parenthesis does not overlap with the last character of
the string.
According to the Unicode standard, neutral characters should not
affect directionality, and that’s what I would expect as a user, too.
I think the best solution would be for Calc to skip all neutral
characters in the beginning of the string and just consider the first
strong character for cell alignment. Even better, Calc could use this
heuristics to assign full text directionality for the cell, not just
change alignment. Right now, if you start the cell with an RTL
character followed by a LTR inset and then continue with RTL again,
the substrings are ordered as in a LTR context ("FIRST second THIRD"),
not as in true RTL ("THIRD second FIRST").

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1793130] [NEW] Wrong alignment while typing RTL text in Calc cell
Public bug reported: Calc normally aligns text cells to the right or to the left based on the directionality of the first character of the cell (left-alignment with English and right-alignment with Arabic). Unfortunately, this assignment happens only when the user has finished typing and pressed Enter. While typing, all text cells are aligned to the left, while for example numbers are automatically aligned to the right even in the typing phase. The same thing happens even when I’m modifying a text cell which was already automatically aligned to the right: as soon as I double-click on the cell, the text jumps to the left edge of the cell, and then I need to visually relocate the exact place I wanted to modify. As a user, I would expect cells with an RTL character in the beginning to get aligned to the right already while the user is typing. This is what happens with many other programs, too, such as Firefox when filling out an HTML form. See the attached screenshot from Calc for an example.

Title:
Automatic cell alignment in Calc breaks with bidi-neutral characters
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Calc seems to assign the alignment of any particular text cell based
on the contents of the cell: if the first character is a LTR
character, the cell is aligned to the left, and if the first character
is RTL, the cell is aligned to the right. This is desirable behavior
but it breaks when the first character is neutral, i.e. a character
that behaves as RTL in an RTL context and as LTR in a LTR context.
See the attached screenshot where cell A1 "abc" is automatically
aligned to the left and cell A2 "ابت" to the right. When I surround
these strings with parentheses, which are bidi-neutral characters, in
A3 and A4, both are aligned to the left. For some reason, even font
metrics break with this assignment, as the last character of the
Arabic string overlaps visually with the closing parenthesis (I think
this is a separate issue and I’ll file it as such).
In column C, I have copied the contents of column A but changed the
directionality setting of cell C4 manually to RTL through Format Cells
> Text direction. Here the cell is properly aligned to the right and
the closing parenthesis does not overlap with the last character of
the string.
According to the Unicode standard, neutral characters should not
affect directionality, and that’s what I would expect as a user, too.
I think the best solution would be for Calc to skip all neutral
characters in the beginning of the string and just consider the first
strong character for cell alignment. Even better, Calc could use this
heuristics to assign full text directionality for the cell, not just
change alignment. Right now, if you start the cell with an RTL
character followed by a LTR inset and then continue with RTL again,
the substrings are ordered as in a LTR context ("FIRST second THIRD"),
not as in true RTL ("THIRD second FIRST").

The same problem does occur on LO 6.0.3 on Ubuntu 18.04. After looking through Arabic-specific issues reported upstream, I did find this: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85426 . I think it's the same issue, although the bug title only mentions "fixing line space" and a specific font. I'm using a different font and I didn't fix any line spaces, just started typing in a new document. Do you think I should file this problem separately? ** Bug watch added: Document Foundation Bugzilla #85426 https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85426 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772451 Title: Diacritical marks become visible only after changing view in Writer Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Arabic is sometimes written with diacritical vowel marks, which are placed either above or below each letter of the word.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772439] Re: Arabic text gets deformed when creating a PDF in LibreOffice Writer
I tested the same example sentence with Ubuntu 18.04 and LibreOffice 6.0.3.2. Here’s the output from pdftotext: ه اشترى للا خمسة آفا كتاب وَأنَا اشْ ت َ َريْتُهَا ِ من ْ ُ Here four out of the eight words are intact, so it’s an improvement to 5.4.6 but still leaves a lot to hope for. The last word of the sentence (مِنْهُ) is broken into pieces so that the last full character ه is found on the first line and the two others on the last. Diacritical marks are sometimes placed where they are supposed to (such as the first and the three last diacritics in the word اشْتَرَيْتُهَا) but sometimes not (the middle of the same word and the last word of the sentence مِنْهُ). This time ى is visible but the first letter of the following word ب is not. Here’s what MS Word 2007 (12.0.6787.5000, SP3 MSO 12.0.6785.5000) on Windows 8.1 produces when processed by pdftotext: اشترى بالل خمسة آالف كتاب وأنا اشتريتها منه So Word 2007 drops all the diacritics, and mixes up the order of the letters in the combination ل (U+0644) + ا (U+0627) producing ال instead of لا. Otherwise the output is intact and definitely much better than LO. I don't have any newer versions of MS Word at my disposal, so I can't test it further. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772439 Title: Arabic text gets deformed when creating a PDF in LibreOffice Writer Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Creating a PDF from a document written in the Arabic script deforms the textual content of the document, although it looks fine on the screen.

For example the letter ب (U+0628) is reduced to about a half or even a third of its width if it's followed by another character such as ا (U+0627): با. Usually LibreOffice understands the changes in font metrics pretty well but not always. See the attached screenshot where I've written the sentence "مرحبا يا صديقي العزيز" in Writer and started selecting letters from the beginning of the line. The selection shown in the screenshot looks like the whole first word plus the following space but actually it only covers the first 4 letters of the first word out of 5 total: مرحب. From a user's point of view, this is very confusing, as I can't tell how far I've already selected without counting the characters in my mind. Even more surprisingly, LibreOffice Calc shows the selection as expected, i.e. different from Writer, so this does not feel like a font problem per se, although only some fonts display this behavior. The font I'm using in this example is Scheherazade, available through a third-party repository at packages.sil.org. The font is designed to cover a very wide variety of characters used for Arabic-script minority languages in both Asia and Africa, and in many cases it's the only professionally made font available for people working on many of these languages.

The font I had used in the rest of the document was DejaVu Sans, so I used that font setting even for these characters. In reality, these glyphs are not found in DejaVu Sans but had to be substituted from another font, in my case Scheherazade (from fonts- sil-scheherazade, available through packages.sil.org). After rotating the letters by 90 degrees, everything looked fine on the screen but when I created a PDF, everything was displaced about one inch upwards and one inch to the left. See the attached screenshot, where everything looks fine, and the PDF where all the letters are displaced. If I change the font setting for this text to Scheherazade, everything looks fine even in a generated PDF. So apparently LibreOffice gets confused by the different font metrics of the two fonts, the one selected by the user and the one used as the real source for the glyphs.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1774744] [NEW] Impossible to select files with long names in order
Public bug reported: Selecting files with long filenames using Shift and arrow keys causes nautilus in icon view not to advance sequentially or not to advance at all. Here's a test case: 1) Create a new folder and create empty files with long names in it using the command: for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40; do touch "abcdef ghijklmn opqrstuvwxyz ABCDEF GHIJKLMN OPQRSTUVWXYZ$i.txt"; done 2) Open the folder in nautilus, hold Shift down and start selecting files by pressing the right arrow key. Everything goes fine up to the end of the first row. However, when you reach the first file on the second row and press the arrow key again (still holding Shift down), the selection jumps back to the second file of the first row. If you keep on pressing the arrow key, it will repeat the process over and over. So by pressing the right arrow key, you can never reach the end of the folder. As a user, I would expect nautilus to progress sequentially to the second file of the second row and so on up to the end of the folder. In the example, I used default font settings and 50 % zoom.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1774244] [NEW] Rotated Arabic text is displaced in PDF when substitute glyphs are used
Public bug reported: In this example, I created a document with a few Arabic-script characters (U+08A2, U+08A3 & U+08A4), which were quite recently added to Unicode for various Arabic-script African languages such as Fulfulde. The font I had used in the rest of the document was DejaVu Sans, so I used that font setting even for these characters. In reality, these glyphs are not found in DejaVu Sans but had to be substituted from another font, in my case Scheherazade (from fonts-sil-scheherazade, available through packages.sil.org). After rotating the letters by 90 degrees, everything looked fine on the screen but when I created a PDF, everything was displaced about one inch upwards and one inch to the left. See the attached screenshot, where everything looks fine, and the PDF where all the letters are displaced.

Now the problem is that if the cursor is on the input line, pressing Ctrl removes all formatting from that cell. Doing the same in the table view does not have the same effect, so I can change the formatting of text with keyboard shortcuts as much as I want in the table view.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772520] Re: Font metrics mixed up when selecting Arabic characters in Writer
@Olivier, no, the upstream bug you mentioned is different. In the example I posted, there are no diacritics (problem number 1 in the upstream report), and visually the text looks fine with no undesirable kerning or spaces (problem number 3 in the report). It's just selection which misbehaves; the rendering of the text looks good. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772520 Title: Font metrics mixed up when selecting Arabic characters in Writer Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In most fonts, many characters in the Arabic script change their width and height as typing progresses. For example the letter ب (U+0628) is reduced to about a half or even a third of its width if it's followed by another character such as ا (U+0627): با. Usually LibreOffice understands the changes in font metrics pretty well but not always. See the attached screenshot where I've written the sentence "مرحبا يا صديقي العزيز" in Writer and started selecting letters from the beginning of the line. The selection shown in the screenshot looks like the whole first word plus the following space but actually it only covers the first 4 letters of the first word out of 5 total: مرحب. From a user's point of view, this is very confusing, as I can't tell how far I've already selected without counting the characters in my mind. Even more surprisingly, LibreOffice Calc shows the selection as expected, i.e. different from Writer, so this does not feel like a font problem per se, although only some fonts display this behavior. The font I'm using in this example is Scheherazade, available through a third-party repository at packages.sil.org. The font is designed to cover a very wide variety of characters used for Arabic-script minority languages in both Asia and Africa, and in many cases it's the only professionally made font available for people working on many of these languages.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772469] [NEW] Pressing Ctrl on the input line in Calc removes all formatting
Public bug reported: In this scenario, I have a Calc cell with formatted text (italics, underlining, boldface, font color etc.). Now if I want to change the formatting of a part of that same cell afterwards, I would naturally select the cell, go to the input line, select the part I want to change and press the appropriate keyboard shortcut, e.g. Ctrl-I for italics. Now the problem is that if the cursor is on the input line, pressing Ctrl removes all formatting from that cell. Doing the same in the table view does not have the same effect, so I can change the formatting of text with keyboard shortcuts as much as I want in the table view. The expected behavior would be for the cell to keep its formatting even if I try to use keyboard shortcuts on the input line.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772470] [NEW] The cloning tool copies only part of the formatting in Writer
Public bug reported: I have found that in some cases using Clone Formatting copies only a part of the attributes of the text. In the example case, open the attached document, press the Clone tool while the cursor is on the first paragraph and select the second paragraph. Here cloning works as expected: the second paragraph gets the same font size, typeface, underlining and boldface as the first paragraph. Now without saving, close the document, open it again, take the cursor to the second paragraph, press Clone again and select the first paragraph. Only font size is transferred but typeface, underlining and boldface stay as they were. As a user, I would expect cloning to work similarly for both cases, i.e. transferring all the attributes from the 2nd to the 1st paragraph, as what happened in the transfer from 1st to 2nd.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772465] [NEW] Pressing undo in Writer removes text but not formatting
Public bug reported: To reproduce this bug, follow these steps: 1) Create two paragraphs of text, one with font size 14 and the other with size 18. 2) Copy some text from the first paragraph to the end of the second paragraph using Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. 3) Now press immediately Ctrl-Z for undo. 4) While the cursor is still at the end of the second paragraph, type some new text. As a user, I would expect the new text to have font size 18, since that’s the size of the text just before the cursor. However, as it appears, the new text gets font size 14 because of the text that was copied from the first paragraph. Thus it seems that Ctrl-Z did not undo the whole copy operation but instead just removed the copied text and left its formatting.

Many multipurpose fonts, which are not designed specifically for Arabic, place some of these marks in the empty space between lines, outside of the space reserved for line height. Writing Arabic in LibreOffice Writer, these marks don't become visible while typing but only after the page view has changed once. See the attached series of screenshots, where the first screenshot has been taken while typing. The first letter of the first word (reading from right to left) should have two diacritical marks: ء and a diagonal line above the letter: أَ. Only the lower half of the ء mark is visible and the diagonal line not at all. The second letter of the same word has a circle on top of it but only the lower half of it is visible. Equally so for the third word of the sentence بِبَرْنَامِجِ, where the last letter of the word has a diagonal line below, but it is not visible at all.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772439] [NEW] Arabic text gets deformed when creating a PDF in LibreOffice Writer
Public bug reported: Creating a PDF from a document written in the Arabic script deforms the textual content of the document, although it looks fine on the screen. For example, see the attached PDF created with Writer, where the example sentence "اشترى بلال خمسة آلاف كتاب وَأَنَا اشْتَرَيْتُهَا مِنْهُ" looks as it should, but when you view it with any PDF reader, such as evince, copying the text deforms most of the words. Some characters are clearly visible but cannot be selected or searched (such as ى at the end of the first word اشترى). If I search for the second word بلال, evince tells me there are no matches in the document. The same happens when converting the file with pdftotext, which produces the following output: اشتر للا مسة لفا كتاب وَأَنَا ْ ه اشت َ َريْتُهَا ِ من ْ ُ Here only two of the seven words are intact, the rest are garbled in one way or another. If the text is in Latin script, both evince and pdftotext behave as expected, meaning that the textual content is transferred correctly from Writer to the PDF.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1772414] [NEW] Justifying Syriac text creates clutter in LibreOffice Writer
Public bug reported: Justifying a paragraph in LibreOffice Writer with text written in the Syriac script (Unicode block U+0700-U+074F) creates graphic clutter between every word. See the attached screenshot where the first paragraph is justified and the second is right-aligned. The second paragraph looks as it should, whereas the first paragraph shows a small line added at the end of each word. If you zoom in or out, some of the lines may disappear, but when you create a PDF, they are all there. The same problem occurs with nearly all the Syriac fonts I have tried, including Serto Batnan, Estrangelo Antioch, East Syriac Ctesiphon and Serto Urhoy (all part of the ttf-xfree86-nonfree-syriac package). For the last two, the clutter is not visible on screen but shows up if you create a PDF. With East Syriac Adiabene, the problem doesn't seem to occur. I have attached a screenshot, a PDF and the document used to create them.

See the attached screenshot where the first paragraph is justified and the second is right-aligned. The second paragraph looks as it should, whereas the first paragraph shows a small line added at the end of each word. If you zoom in or out, some of the lines may disappear, but when you create a PDF, they are all there. The same problem occurs with nearly all the Syriac fonts I have tried, including Serto Batnan, Estrangelo Antioch, East Syriac Ctesiphon and Serto Urhoy (all part of the ttf-xfree86-nonfree-syriac package). For the last two, the clutter is not visible on screen but shows up if you create a PDF. With East Syriac Adiabene, the problem doesn't seem to occur. I have attached a screenshot, a PDF and the document used to create them.
