Issue in Selecting Text in InputField

[ATHellboy]

Hey,

I've had a problem with this package and other RTL packages. The problem is in selecting text in input field, When I select text and want to clear that part, the opposite part of the text is cleared.

Any suggestion to fix this problem ?

Many thanks,
Alireza

Hi Alireza, I don't have any solutions for that at the moment. the problem is because we reverse the user input, replace their characters with the correct one and display the result on the screen. when you try to select part of the text, it's not easy to track what part of which text(old one or reversed one) is selected.
I will keep thinking about this.

so why not using some trick ???
like
having another input field on top of the old one and then when the old one is been interacted (been Clicked on) it disappears and the vise verse thing happens to the new one with no placeholder ????
i guess it should work...
the same concept that everyone uses in front end development
i know
its is going to be the tough way and hard code , but i just thinked about it !!!!

@ErEllison can you explain more about your idea? if we generate a new input field, what text data should be inside the new one? if we show the original string (the reversed one) player sees something like this: م‌ا‌ل‌س
if we show the correct one, "سلام" the player cant select part of that and what would be the point of generating a new input field?
