johanneswilm left a comment (w3c/editing#515) On the new spec: TPAC 2025: > support for Bidirectional(presence of both ltr and rtl) text: Selection and cursor navigation – where should we start? Rakesh We dont have github issue or proposal for bidirectional support. Still in ideation phase Concept of proposal - today a common practice for people to use LTR and RTL text in same sentence in same world. In chromium based browsers, in selection part, it has both combination. We want to improve UX to support such combinations We plan to have a proposal, don’t have much as of now. Just wanted to pitch the idea Johannes We already spoke about making new spec, not much about directions Caret movement in general is oe of things, close to selection but not the same There are other questions - editor inside editor does it go around it ? should go in editing spec Given another issue about caret movement all should go into new spec - with a specific section We solved it 10 years ago - caret wouldn’t go certain places. It was less of a need. But a spec would be good with new browsers coming along. Are you proposing a new spec, can we have another section with carent move around svgs, images and other problematic elements Rakesh Would be good idea Johannes Need a name for spec. - Caret movement spec Smaug Sounds reasonable Rakesh: Sounds good Johannes Resolution - have new spec “Caret movement”. Rakesh will be the editor. I can share more issues around the caret movement.
