Arabic support in what sense?

thank you, thank you for your kind support

you're right. And we can see the differences much easier if we understand Arabic language. If the text is not in Arabic, or Arabic font, then Text Layout Framework will treat it as normal reading. This automatic setting made me sometimes hard to figure out the differences.

Another place to look is what it looks like when you embed a font. When you are using TextField with device fonts, you are getting the rendering that's supplied by the underlying platform (Windows/Mac/Linux) which may be doing glyph substitution & reordering for you or not. With embedded fonts it could be quite far off. And there were also problems when you started selecting. I'd suggest writing a small application that allows you to type a string, and then displays it using TextField and using TLF side by side in various different fonts for purposes of comparison if you want to know more.

hmmm,,,the differences can be seen if we create a table. In case of arabic reading, the order of column is inverse with the normal left to right reading. But the character is still displayed as is except date. When i tested with a normal TextField, it works well with Arabic ;) It means that the earlier version also support Arabic language. Do you agree?

Thank you for your response. But it seems like no more than right alignment. You can check out this example so we can understand more accurately: In the example, what we see is obviously right alignment. Even when i used MS Office with right alignment setting, then when i typed text in, its behavior was exactly the same in the example.

So infact, the term "LTF or RTL direction" is just a new term but the same traditional concept left and right alignment.
Do you have any specific example (include source code if possible) that provides more than the "right" alignment, or "justify" alignment as in above example,...
