GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 675459
Ctrl+Shift + (left/right) keys to mark words is inverted for RTL languages

In the name of the kind Allah Hello, As you may know, when we press and hold Ctrl+shift and then pressing left or right key the words are highlighted and so we can do what ever we want. And that, after pressing and holding Ctrl+shift keys, then when we press (for instance) right key, it means that select the right word, And this work properly in English languages, that when we press left key it highlights the left word and when pressing right key it highlights the right word, But when I changed from English language to my own Persian (RTL) language, it works vice-versa, I mean, when I press left key to select the left side word, it highlights the right side one word, and when pressing right key to select right side word it highlights the left side word, Thank you
Sorry, this bug report fell through the cracks and went unnoticed. The selection is handled by the GTK library, so I am reassigning it.
