Next affinity Publisher and right to left language


Recommended Posts

Hy, a question about the next Affinity Publisher.

I know It's not in Beta test yet.

But, have you thought about users who need to write texts in Hebrew, ie using languages written from right to left?

I am not simply speaking of modern Hebrew, without vowels, but also of ancient Hebrew, with vowels and diacritical signs, and so on.

RTL support is something that has been requested before and we will look to implement in the future but we have no ETA on this just yet. 

 

I guess that depends on what qualifies as an ETA! Dave Harris indicated in reply to this post that RTL support in the Affinity apps is "many years away".

This is very simple - simply allow the text going rtl.

What makes you think there is anything simple about implementing a rtl text editor?
