Dear Regina,
thank you very much that you still remembering our talk at German
Community Meeting.
- Yes, we need it in Mongolian old script. These information was for me
very useful for Mongolian old script, which uses top-to-down with
left-to-right.
I mean like in your example document "Page mongolianVert Table RTL.odt".
I will test it later the full functionality of this settings and respond
you back.
- Yes, for the second question too. Because our Cyrillic script uses
normal left-to-right with top-to-down. I think both scripts in one
document combined are at the moment usual usage.
- For other questions i need more tests to answer those.
Best regards
Bachka
PS: I have at moment less time for testing (Mother in my House from
Mongolia for 2 months, :D), sorry. but it has piqued my interest and
motivates me to do more, ;). Thank you for your effort!

Hi all,
I’m on working to specify the property “style:writing-mode” for ODF.
That property is called “text direction” in the UI of LibreOffice.
A page in a text document has the setting “Text direction” in section
“Paper Format” on tab “Page” of the “Page Style” dialog. Possible
values are
Left-to-right (horizontal)
Right-to-left (horizontal)
Right-to-left (vertical)
Left-to-right (vertical)
A table has the setting “Text direction” in section “Properties” on
tab “Table” in “Table Properties” dialog. Possible values are
Left-to-right (LTR)
Right-to-left (RTL)
Use superordinate object settings
LibreOffice can combine a vertical text direction at the page with RTL
text direction of the table.
Are such combinations actually used in documents?
Does LibreOffice render the texts in the way users need it?
What is the intended behavior of such combinations?
Kind regards,
Regina
