RTL layout for paragraphs starting with

#11770 is so vague that I can’t even understand what is the requested feature… a clear and achievable change to VSCode for RTL is I believe starts from this, please make a paragraph RTL if it starts with RTL text.

Steps to reproduce: Put this on gedit:

متن
متن
متن
متن
text
text
text
text

Now try the same with VSCode

Expected: Easily achievable by adding dir=auto to div element and remove dir=ltr from the span, I just did it for the first line

Alternatively, you can put a switch (toggle-able with command switch, something like > Toggle Direction) and apply document direction switch to whole document and detect whether a document needs RTL direction behind the scene, if you don’t like per paragraph direction setting.

What’s the status of this? I am also looking for this solution, and it looks like many people are looking for it as well.

Thanks for the report. Let’s not confuse the issues which is the case with #11770, you report should be fixed with #78867 which filed separately to avoid confusion. Thanks
