ISSUE-2348: direction property and the effect on text elements [SVG 1.1 F2 Last Call] http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/track/issues/2348 Raised by: Erik Dahlström On product: SVG 1.1 F2 Last Call >From the definition of the 'direction' property[1]: [[ For the ‘direction’ property to have any effect, the ‘unicode-bidi’ property's value must be embed or bidi-override. ]] This is misleading and wrong, and breaks testcases. A better definition is in SVG Tiny 1.2 [2]: [[ For the 'direction' property to have any effect on an element that does not by itself establish a new text chunk (such as the 'tspan' element in SVG 1.2 Tiny), the 'unicode-bidi' property's value must be embed or bidi-override. ]] Proposed edit for 1.1F2: [[ For the 'direction' property to have any effect on an element that does not by itself establish a new text chunk (such as a 'tspan' element without absolute position adjustments due to 'x' or 'y' attributes), the 'unicode-bidi' property's value must be embed or bidi-override. ]] [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/text.html#DirectionProperty [2] http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGTiny12/text.html#DirectionProperty
