Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for all existing open AND closed issues and discussions for similar requests. I have found none that is comparable to my request.

Verify Feature Scope

  • I have read through and understood the scope definition for feature requests in the Issues section. I believe my feature request meets the definition and belongs in the Issues section instead of the Discussions.

Problem Description

In the Notes section, text written in Right-to-Left (RTL) languages such as Persian is not displayed correctly. The text direction remains Left-to-Right (LTR), forcing the text to align to the left side of the screen. This makes paragraphs and multi-line text difficult to read and visually incorrect for native speakers.

Desired Solution you'd like

The Notes editor/viewer should detect RTL characters and displaying the text with Right-to-Left directionality and alignment.
