Hello,
In the unicode bidi algorithm, I have come across the case where NSM characters
from the script written from right-to-left (Thai,...) following the consonants
which have the strong type and are written from left-to-right (Arabic,hebrew),
then, the NSM character will be rendered to the left of the strong right-to-left
consonant. I think this is because Unicode bidi declares that NSM will have
the direction according to the previous character.
A,B -> arabic consonant (AR)
x -> Thai vowel (NSM)
y -> Thai consonant (L)
Logical inp: A B x
Visual out: x B A
I think when comparing to this following case, not too sure if that
what the intension of the bidi algorithm is.
Logical inp: A B y x
Visual out: B A y x
Please let me know if I missed anythings or any suggestion.
Chookij V.
