Hi,
I am working on a project, in which I have to highlight some keywords in text paragraphs.
When I select a word and change the fill color in the character panel, it doesn't affect the selected area of the text, it seems to be affecting random areas of the text, sometimes it doesn't at all.
I am not sure but the issue seems to be with the Arabic text, here's a preview as well as my current app settings.
As I told you above, I tried reversing x scale trick within the same file you shared and sadly it did not work

in the files you uploaded, you are using the MENA type engine. you have to use the Latin if you want this to work. if you copy paste the text from a MENA type engine text layer to a Latin type engine text layer it will retain the engine. you have to copy from an unformatted source (like from your browser or something). copy the text to some source that will remove the formatting (like you web browser address field). so this does work but only partially because I see now I do have problem with the Ligatures and looking online I see you need this script too:
ArabicText - aescripts + aeplugins - aescripts.com
trying it I see you do not need the reverse x scale method but to just use this script and it will fix this. so your workaround is this script and use Latin text engine (create a new layer and make sure from the preferences you are using the Latin Engine).
here's the project file made with the script:
