Broken Arabic text in modern OpenIV windows

[ahmed605]

Broken Arabic text in modern (UWP like) OpenIV windows (the text is not broken in legacy windows(Win32 like)) although Segoe UI supports Arabic perfectly.

Any updates on this?

@ahmed605 We did investigate this. And unfortunately we cannot fix it in our current render implementation.

@GooD-NTS can you technically describe the issue, I'm a developer and I had many RTL issues in my apps before and I fixed them so I might be able to help you.

@amrshaheen61 what tool did you use to reverse characters to make this work?

(I tried reversing characters order (only) via automation (made an app to do this for multiple strings) but it didn't work)

@ahmed605
I designed an app to reverse word order and a site to reverse letters
استعملت برنامج من تصميمي لعكس الترتيب مثل
اهلا وسهلا ==>وسهلا.اهلا
وعكست الحروف مثل
ﻼﻫﺍ.ﻼﻬﺳﻭ

@GooD-NTS the UI need to be mirrored for the Arabic translation BTW

Graphical content can be automate-able, they just have to implement the required UIA APIs
Windows.UI.Xaml does this for example (which runs on (Windows.UI.)Composition which runs on DirectComposition which runs on Direct2D which runs on Direct3D/DX11)
