Confirming as the report looks clearly valid.
Looks like a KatePart, or possibly Qt bug.
The correct consonant should be র্য while QTextEdit renders it as র ্য
Hello, Are there any recent updates about this issue? Thanks.
Runa, is there a Qt bug report for it?
(In reply to comment #5) > Runa, is there a Qt bug report for it? Anne, I did not file any Qt bug and am not aware of any being filed for this issue. Kevin mentions that it could be a 'KatePart, or possibly Qt bug', so I am not sure what to do next. Thanks
QTextEdit does not render it properly. Please try the following ------------ #include <QApplication> #include <QTextEdit> int main( int argc, char ** argv ) { QApplication a( argc, argv ); QWidget window; window.resize(400, 250); QTextEdit *textWidget1 = new QTextEdit; textWidget1->show(); return a.exec(); } ------- qmake -project qmake make run the program and paste র্য in it it renders as র ্ য you can report that to Qt tracker probably
Of course use Firefox (not Konqueror) to display this page and see my latest comment, all KDE component do not display the consonant properly and then it makes no sense. KMail either does not display it. GEdit works well by the way.
So all evidence points to a Qt bug, we need to report this to the Qt folks at Nokia.
For reference, a crude ASCII art approximation of the correct rendering: ____ .<|S Anything with dotted circles in it is an incorrect rendering.

It seems some kind of patch was finally merged. Maybe for Qt4.8, I don't really know. You will find more information here (especially in the 2nd link): https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com//browse/QTBUG-13616 http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/merge_requests/2484 I resolve this as upstream, as it's not a Kate issue. It's all in the Qt hands.
