Build Identifier: Version: 4.2.1 Buid id: J20120711-1640 Because it's uncomfortable to enter Hebrew or Arabic text in LTR direction, the BIDI end-user expects possibility to set base text direction of component and have it persisted in in-cell editor. The problem is described in details here: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=273198 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create new Logic Diagram 2. Pick up Label from Pallete and draw it in the model editor 3. Double-click on the label to open in-cell editor and enter mixed English-Hebrew or English-Arabic text, The text direction is LTR. 4. Press on Right Ctrl+Shift. The text direction becomes RTL. 5. Click in space out of the Label to exit in-cell editor. The text direction becomes LTR once, again, and the text looks differently from when it was in the in-cell editor. 6. Enter the in-cell editor once again - the text direction is LTR. RTL direction that was set in the previous time was not kept.

This is probably a duplicate of bug 133053 from GEF 3.2 (Eclipse 3.2), so there are no plans to fix in the short term.

Please notice, the bug #133053 is about existing functionality (namely typing). This bug is a "feature request" - it reports missing of important functionality which relevant for either typing and static display.
