Hi @M0ha33d , thanks for your feedback! We will keep working on more fonts for Arabic language!
Omg
AINT NO WAY I CAN NOW TYPE WITHOUT SUFFERING FROM IMAGING THE SENTENCE IN REVERSE?
Hold up does it work on the chat tol?
This is very useful for arabic developers, translaters , THANK YOU FOR THAT UPDATE!! i hope you make update fix the loading arabic screen
Hi @mhmdsndb3 , I believe it should work, as long as the experience has the property enabled correctly (or, in the future the property will be enabled by default). Please let us know if this doesnโt work for chat.
thatโs already a feature built into the escape menu
That is great! But why not make it activated automatically just like how other languages works?
Hi @xxibadrxx , we will eventually make this activated automatically for RTL languages. We introduced this property for this time being just in case there are experiences that already pre-fixed the RTL text direction and we didnโt want to break these experiences. Please stay tuned and we will give another update when this feature gets fully released.
Good to hear this coming to Roblox. Inclusivity to all languages is always a good thing.
wow this update will make roblox accessible to a lot of other regional people โฆ like mine region is asia where i speak urdu ( you know as a daily language)
Iโm experiencing a issue with this feature: Right To Left Text does not work on BillboardGuis in workspace
Finally, this is great, I can finally write in arabic without having to use the font Arial, and if I write english and arabic, I donโt need to do like this anymore when using rich text
My Name <font family="Arial">ุฃูุง ุงุณู
ู</font>
before, it would be like ุงุณู ู ุงูุง, but now itโs ุฃูุง ุงุณู ู
Hi @Dede_4242 , as we are reviewing the option to add a toggle for TextDirection for RTL text, do you think you could provide some examples where people would want to keep the paragraph in LTR even if it starts with an Arabic word? This will help us complete the feature correctly and efficiently. Thank you!
Like in:
โ(Arabic word) meansโ
For example, or
โ(Arabic word) the best restaurant in the worldโ
For a restaurant in Arabia
Those are just a few examples tho, ask me if you need more
There is another issue with the right-to-left (RTL) update in the Hebrew language. When typing a long sentence that spans multiple lines, if a symbol such as ?!@#<" or any other symbol is placed at the end of the sentence, the order of the lines is reversed. This reversal probably occurs because the system mistakenly interprets the text as left-to-right instead of the correct right-to-left orientation.
Hereโs an illustrative example to further clarify the issue. When typing a sentence without any symbols at the end, the text is displayed correctly in the following order:
ืืื ืจืง ืจืฆืืชื ืืืืื
ืฉืืื ืืืืื
However, when a symbol like ! is added at the end, the lines are mistakenly rearranged as follows:
!ืฉืืื ืืืืื
ืืื ืจืง ืจืฆืืชื ืืืืื
Hi @TheRealRoni972 , thanks for reporting this issue and adding to this feature! I suppose this issue is a duplicate to Right-to-left Text Support - #10 by 8xD4n. And we are working on a fix for this and hopefully it can be deployed soon. Please let me know if this is a different issue or if you notice any other issues. Thank you!
And more issue , when someone type โ ืฉืืืโ so that doing โืฉืืื โ like emoji back and not after words
Hi @Myoffice129 , just to make sure I understand it correctly - When you say you would like the emoji to be back and not after words, does it mean that you expect this to be on the left to the words or right? The paragraph direction changes depending on the first character of the paragraph so with the current behavior, ืฉืืื will probably have the emoji displayed on the left side(If the emoji is typed afterwards) since the whole paragraph will be right-to-left.
Hello CharlieGordonn!,
Like that doing โืฉืืื โ not โ ืฉืืืโ
Ill explain, if you where to put a symbol at the start of the sentance for exanple you wanted to say 4 apples in the basket, in hebrew you would say:
ืชืคืืืื ืืชืื ืืกื c 4
(Ignore the letter c because the issue is also on the dev forum for some reason but the number is the first character basically)
But in roblox the number goes all the way to the end of the sentance instead, so it would look like this:
ืชืคืืืื ืืชืื ืืกื 4
This issuss accurs with anything from numbers to emojis and such symbols.
