Description amir CLA 2006-02-23 06:53:00 EST
Scenario1:
1. Create a Java project and a Java class.
2. Open the class in the editor.
3. Type in a few characters in Hebrew and then delete the typed text using backspace key.
4. Start to type again.

Result: The keyboard language is switched into English 

Scenario2:
1. Type in the Java class the line: "public Method (int var);" for instance.
2. Put the cursor anywhere in the screen and change the keyboard language into Hebrew.
3. Over with the mouse on the above line thus a hover will show up.
4. Now try to type some text where the cursor is located.

Result: The keyboard language is switched into English once the hover was shown.

Build id?

Does scenario 1 also happen with the Text editor?
Comment 2 amir CLA 2006-02-26 02:57:23 EST
Build id: I20051215-1506

Scenario 1 happen also with text editor.
Comment 3 Dani Megert CLA 2006-02-27 03:36:25 EST
Can you also try scenario 2? You can activate a hover by
1. select a Java file with warnings or errors
2. open it using Open With > Text Editor
3. hover over a yellow or green squiggle (i.e. error or warning)

NOTE: with latest builds (> N20060223-0010), scenario 2 might also differ for the Java editor since I've fixed bug 127987.

Moving to SWT for comments, Text isn't doing anything special here.

Problem is exists also in all above cases, however I will check it out again with new build.  
Comment 5 Felipe Heidrich CLA 2006-03-02 12:05:01 EST
Please, in the future enter a problem report for each problem you find.

Scenario1: when the caret moves over a english (or neutral in a ltr widget) character the keyboard automatically switches to english. Not a bug.

Scenario2: I will work on this, apparentely when a shell opens the keyboard switches to english.
