GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 725650
draw the cursor in the right position with RTL text direction
Last modified: 2021-06-10 11:32:07 UTC
the ClutterText painting code bails out early in the case the cursor is visible but there is no text, which means that in RTL layouts the cursor is drawn in the wrong position, and jumps as soon as the user enters a character.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of clutter, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/clutter/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
