TextMesh Pro How do I make word wrap move the correct things to the next line in a RTL language?

Please see the attached screenshots. I have a "TextMeshPro - Text (UI)" field. Usually it contains English text, but it has many failover font assets to cover the various languages the game will be localized into. Screenshot 1 shows the TextMesh Pro settings on this field. The i2 Localization plugin swaps out the text at runtime, plugging in the needed translation for the language the player has chosen.


My question is in regards to Arabic text not behaving as I expect when Word Wrap is enabled.

Screenshot 2 shows the Arabic text as it ought to look (except for word wrap being disabled). Notice that the right-most word looks like an upside-down 'R' (I'm sorry; I don't know Arabic, so I can't describe it properly). As Arabic goes right-to-left, this is the first word. (In a left-to-right language, the right-most word would be the last word, but Arabic isn't left-to-right.)


Screenshot 3 shows the same field and same text, but with word wrap enabled. Notice that the upside-down 'R' is now the right-most word on the bottom line, which is not where the first word should be in a right-to-left language. (However, this is where the last word would be in a left-to-right language.)


When the text is a left-to-right language, the linebreaking moves the words I expect it to to the next line. What should I do to make the linebreaking move the words I expect it to when the text is a right-to-left language?

(For what it's worth, I tried using this Unity plug-in that has been recommended elsewhere: https://forum.unity.com/threads/rtl...ian-and-arabic-support-to-textmeshpro.535758/ . It did not seem to resolve the problem; the upside-down 'R' still ended up as the right-most character on the second row.)

Unity version: 2019.3.11f1
TMPro version: tried with both 2.0.1 and 2.1.0 preview.14

 

Looking into fixing this as well. Curious if you found a solution @cquels

 

Up, any ideas on how to fix this?
