Hi,
is there support for arabic keyboard in the v8.3 release?
I saw arabic keyboard was added to the v7.10.0 release (#1964), but in the following releases the patch has been removed.

thank you,
regards

Hi,

To be honest, I don’t remember why was it removed. Would you be interested in adding it back?

Hi @kisvegabor,
sorry for the late rsponse, I’ve just created the PR (#3728). The patch is only a porting of the code from the release 7.10.0, taken “as is” with just a few patches to make it work in the new release.

I tested the code with the simulator on windows (wsl+vscode), just remember to set
#define LV_FONT_DEFAULT &lv_font_dejavu_16_persian_hebrew in lv_conf.h

If someone is using demo_widgets for testing (like me) it’s also needed to disable all MONTSERRAT fonts otherwise the demo picks up these fonts in place of the default.

Let me known if everything is ok :slight_smile:
