Description Matthew T. Veety CLA 2005-07-12 16:18:16 EDT 
File org.eclipse.pde.ui\org\eclipse\pde\interal\ui\pderesources.properties.

During Arabic TVT the tester encountered a bug in which the text under Plug-in
Project > Overview, when highlighted, will "scroll" more text.  It only happens
under Arabic, no other supported languages.  I have attached pictures of the
problem provided by the tester.  If need be I will supply Arabic NL fragments to
so you can replicate the problem.  Contact me at mtveety@us.ibm.com if you need
them.

Comment 3 Wassim Melhem CLA 2005-07-12 22:58:57 EDT 
why is this so "critical"?
Comment 4 Matthew T. Veety CLA 2005-07-13 08:38:58 EDT 
Just setting at the level that I was told to set it at.  We simply need it 
taken care of as soon as possible.

Wassim, Dejan - can you take a look at this bug and see if it can be fixed for 
3.1.1?  Thanks.
You can see the problem in English if you run Eclipse with program argument 
   -dir rtl
Comment 6 Dejan Glozic CLA 2005-08-30 11:59:45 EDT 
This is a known bug in FormText selection with rtl text direction.

I agree with Wassim that although it should be fixed, it cannot be critical 
(overview text is not code - just a description and selecting it is not a 
critical path operation).
Comment 7 Karice McIntyre CLA 2005-08-31 10:46:04 EDT 
Cam, this is not a blocking defect - can we change the Severity on this one to 
normal?

Dejan, do you plan to fix this bug for 3.1.1?
Comment 8 Dejan Glozic CLA 2005-08-31 10:49:13 EDT 
We can look at it and decide depending on the extent of the code change 
required.
Comment 9 Cam-Thu Le CLA 2005-09-01 09:46:17 EDT 
I tried but failed to lower the sev level. Mat, can you lower the sev to 
major. Thanks.
Comment 10 Karice McIntyre CLA 2005-09-15 12:05:00 EDT 
Dejan, has anyone looked at this bug yet?  We need status on all the 3.1.1 
targeted bugs.
Comment 11 Dejan Glozic CLA 2005-09-15 12:09:27 EDT 
We will not fix this bug in 2.1.1 time frame.
Comment 12 Cam-Thu Le CLA 2005-09-15 16:02:56 EDT 
You mean 3.1.1 ?
Comment 13 Dejan Glozic CLA 2005-09-15 17:31:07 EDT 
Yes, sorry :-).
Comment 14 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2019-09-06 16:18:01 EDT 
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
