Hmmm. Further on the inside-out rule. Note the following pairs, which are supposed to be in UTF-8: ā̈ ǟ ṻ ǖ The first "a" with combiners isn't displaying correctly here, it should have the diaeresis above the macron, just like the first "u". I attach a GIF showing the display using Doulos SIL/BabelPad. But, this isn't a font problem as this repros with at least one other font. Therefore, I think it's a bug in the rendering engine. It looks like the rendering engine is doing an unwanted reordering for the first "a" sequence. Best regards, James Kass
