Hi!
Using Hebrew is a pleasure and that's why I bought the keyboard for. The suggestion are written from left to write instead of from right to left.
Here is some information:

Hi
That's why I added an option "RTL suggestions" in v2.5.0 (it was for arabic, but it also applies to hebrew)
The point is that some ROMs implement RTL correctly, others don't, so the keyboard cannot guess automatically what it has to do (unless someone has a magical idea). That's why there is an option

Thanks Cyril that's great, didn't know about this option! I'll let the community know...
Tried it now, it works but only for the word typed the rest are still switched...

Cyril are you using cyanogen 5.0.8? I can send you a screen shot of that would help, also I confirmed this issue with other people using hebrew on smartkeyboard pro.

No, I am using FRF50 at the moment, but when I uncheck this option, all the words appear reverse, so I would expect the contrary on CM.
I don't really understand why the highlighted word would have a different behavior in CM, as all the words in the suggestion bar are written with Canvas.drawText() method

Sorry I can't tell you why... but I do know that bidi is handled differently in cyanogenmod (recently it was patched to solve bidi issues in android).
Also I found the relevant code. Hope it helps...

I think it would help you solve the problem.

Hey Cyril and progress on the Issue?
Also, just reporting a small bug, long pressing "ש" to get "0" gives out something else.

No... I would need to flash CM (I don't have time at the moment) to check this problem myself, because I can't understand how that's possible
About the long press, it's on purpose.. it displays a 0 and another character (I don't know why but I saw that on other keyboards too
)
