Incorrect word order of Hebrew slides imported from power point
Last modified: 2009-11-05 00:17:04 UTC
Build cws_srx644_ooo20030223 on Windows ME Hebrew enabled, with CTL enabled in OO: When importing a Hebrew PowerPoint presentation, althugh character order inside word is correct, the word order is incorrect: it is LTR instead of RTL. This applyies to all text in the slide show. In addition, the slide order in the slide view is increectly LTR as well. To repro: * open any Hebrew power point slide show in OO impress. * View it in "slide view" (where the slides are tiled)- notice the slide order and the word order in the slide titles. * View the actaul slides- notice the word order in the slides.

DL->CL: Would you please takeover?
Sven,you can call SetDefaultWritingMode( ::com::sun::star::text::WritingMode_RL_TB ); on the SdDrawDocument to set the default to RTL

This Issue is 'Verified' and not updated in 1yr+, so Closing. A Closed Issue is a Happy Issue (TM). Regards, Andrew Cleaning-up and Closing old Issues as part of: ~ The Grand Bug Squash, pre v3 ~
This issue is still very much present. I do not see how an issue being verified constitutes it being fixed.
