Basically, you mix up two things: formatting and presentation. The buttons in text editors are about formatting of a text, while you complain about the presentation. Further, the presentation is a problem in Qt. The only reasonable approach to me is to setup the direction according to the currently configured language of a project. Hi A Al-Arfaj, If you open qtconfig, under the Interface tab, you will see a checkbox called "Enhanced support for language written right-to-left", check it and restart kde. Now on every QLineEdit and QTextEdit you will be able to choose the direction of the text by pressing ctrl+shift (like in windows). You are asking to determinate the direction of the text according to the msgstr, and not the "plain text" on the widget. I am not sure it's possible on Qt3, but on Qt4 it might be possible. However, on Qt4 there is no automatic direction detection, which means the direction of the text box is set to the direction of the widget (and not the content). Just some random toughts for KDE4.... BTW, what I do when I translate something in kbabel, is pressing enter after each HTML tag, and so my text gets alligned to the right, and the HTML tags on the left, this makes the translation easier for work with. Not perfect, but sill quite good. *** Bug 129684 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** KBabel is discontinued. New bugs should be reported against Lokalize. IMHO it's safe to close as "UNMAINTAINED". |
