Hi,In LyX 2.1, text direction is enforced depending on language direction. This means that if one types "arabix" in an Arabic document, it will read "cibara" on screen.
The usefulness of this can be discussed but: * this is how we always did it * nobody ever complained about it.In the new 2.2 code, RtL text is displayed string-wise and not character-wise. This means that we have to override what Qt would have done for us.
The code that is currently in master works on my limited testing. Please load the attaxched file with latest master and check whether the last paragraph reads "cibara". I only tested it with Ubuntu 15.10 and Mac OS 10.7, all with Qt 4.8.6.
All datapoints are welcome. JMarc
