Hi Yinon!

Right now we use browser level auto-detect of rtl strings to determine which way to flow the text. It appears that the string you are using there fails the test for some reason. Unfortunately I am not personally an fluent in any RTL languages so I cant really guess as to why :frowning:

We are working on a more robust solution.

hi @Jason,

thanks for the quick respond, appreciate it a lot.
as for the recognition issue, the translation of the the field is: “grade 10 number 1 Haifa” first letter is the the 10th letter in the Hebrew alphabet which is the the equivalant for 10th grade in high school, 1 is the buneric number of the class whithin the 10th grade and Haifa is a city in Israel. all the charactes are widly used in Hebrew.

To test your theory I took the same exact words which worked on the Details source on the data section and used it on Caption as well. as you can see it’s still aligned wrong. I think there’s a bug in the field definition on your side and whatever working in the first 2 fields is not working here.
