Add RTL support?

Workspace
1

Look, Onlyoffice feels great. It got that modern look, I feel it’s faster and even it’s supported on nextcloud.

I like it even more than Libreoffice (*even though I’m a libreoffice hardcore fan)

but my god how much it’s hard to add support for Right-To-Left Languages? As an Arabic speaker user I use onlyoffice not only for online edits but also for school work and guess what? we type in Arabic (I know it’s a surprise!) and nope onlyoffice STILL does not support that for some reason so i got back to libreoffice but i still need to use onlyoffice so can you support RTL? I’m sure it’s not rocket science

Hello @esmailelbob

Unfortunately, Right to Left languages are still not supported by ONLYOFFICE, our developers are working on implementing them in the future, but still, there is no exact release date. We apologize for the inconveniences caused!

For me it’s the only option to switch to linux and leave microsoft…

Is there a way we can help develop Arabic & RTL support further?
