The new visual editor is missing the paragraph direction button/feature (?)
-
I am missing the paragraph direction control button in the new visual editor (it is there in the ”old” one (through the ”posts” section in the admin page).
is it just me? am I missing some configuration?
Thanks!

Hi there. I’m not aware of any “paragraph direction control button”. Where exactly do you see this in the old editor? Text direction is controlled by your language settings, no matter which editor you use.
-
If you’re talking of the text alignment icons, they’re in the first row of the toolbar in the new editor, same as in the old. http://snag.gy/2NOsy.jpg

I am looking for this one:

Thanks,

Ah, okay. I think that only appears for blogs with RTL language settings, so I can’t check that for you. I’ll tag this for staff to follow up. Please be patient while waiting for their response.
Meanwhile, I’d suggest you stick to the old editor where you have that option.

nightmechanic–That option is available in the new editor, but only when you have your interface language set to a rtl language.
You can set your interface language here

That indeed worked,
there is no way to have an english interface language and a bi-directional editor?Ran

That is correct.
