loyukfai Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Similar to the linked issue, Windows has the same problems. Posted previously on "Feature Requests" but there has been no feedback thus far. Cheers. bgteach, sungkhum and lynzrand 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Gabe Posted December 20, 2018 Staff Share Posted December 20, 2018 Hi @loyukfai, We do not tend to reply to feature requests. As for your actual question, I'm not really sure I understand it correctly. When you say "should not appear at the beginning of a new line" , is that based on the grammar rules? For example, the same would apply for English. You should not start a sentence with a full stop or a semicolon. But that does not stop you from doing it. Technically, you can type whatever you want and start a sentence with whatever character you wish. If it makes sense or not, it's a different story. Thanks, Gabe.

loyukfai Posted December 20, 2018 Author Share Posted December 20, 2018 Yes, basically it's more or less the same as in English, e.g. commas and full stops shouldn't appear at the beginning of a line, unless you specifically make it so. Right now, Affinity Designer and Publisher doesn't recognize these rules, perhaps because they do not recognize the Asian punctuation marks? See the link below for more details:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_breaking_rules_in_East_Asian_languages Thanks! PaoloT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Gabe Posted December 21, 2018 Staff Share Posted December 21, 2018 That would not be a bug in this case. Even Microsoft word allows you to put them in the front of a sentence. A text editor app should not prevent you from typing certain characters. What you're looking for is a spell checker. We have closed this issue as "by design".

loyukfai Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 No, Word won't do that. If you say this is "by design", it simply means Affinity Designer and Publisher are not suitable for the Asian market. I'd take a video and show you how it should work. Cheers.

Staff Gabe Posted December 21, 2018 Staff Share Posted December 21, 2018 Right. That's actually word wrap we're talking about, which is a different story. I will log this with our developers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loyukfai Posted June 13, 2019 Author Share Posted June 13, 2019 Thanks. Hopefully Serif will realize that this is kind of a deal-breaker for the Asian market and start working on it. Cheers. lynzrand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashf Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 @loyukfaiYou can add the tag by yourself under the topic title. It seems Asian typography feature has lower priority on Serif's roadmap. But people more than in Europe and America is waiting for Affinity as Adobe alternative. Only these typography feature is the bottleneck as you mentioned.
