Thank you for the quick response!
I checked this with various layouts of emerald.
First, this problem appears only with texts that begin with Hebrew (or Arabic,
or Farsi) characters, and thus are recognised to be RTL.
Second, I have tested this with several configurations of title bar elements in
emerald, editable in emerald theme manager. I attach image showing the problem.
Please ignor the screenshot-taking window which is partially seen on top of the
relevant window - its just fade plugin not erasing it on time. The numbers on
the image represent the following cases:
1. When the layout is: {left - icon, text}{center - nothing}{right - buttons},
I can see the Hebrew text in its whole. However, it is aligned to the buttons
on the right, not to the icon on the left as it should.
2. When the layout is: {left - text, icon}{center - nothing}{right - buttons},
things get whack y. The Icon appears around the middle of the title bar, and
the text adjacent to the buttons to the right, but not right besides them as in
case 1. Clearly some BiDi algorythm is working when it is not supposed to.
3. When the layout is {left - icon}{center - text}{right - buttons}, text
disappears except cut-down leftovers, partially outside the window (note this
on the image). This happens too if I place the text on the right portion.
It is worth mentioning that in all 3 cases, no text can be seen in the labels
used by various switcher plugins.
Please check it out, using Hebrew-only string as a title bar (easily
done if you give a folder a Hebrew name) and set the text to appear in
the bar center (using appropriate gtk theme in case you use gtk-
decorator, or editing/finding an emerald theme in case you use emerald).
