South Asian languages support

[Kumr]

Does VS support South Asian languages? Text is not displaying properly using devanagari fonts. Is there any setting in the preferences I have to enable? Thanks

@Kumr No special support for South Asian languages yet. What are the text display issues?

Attaching a screenshot. Same text I copied from Mac Notepad to VS.

Font in VS: Kohinoor Devanagari Font

@Kumr This might be an OpenType font feature issue, something to be selected in the Typography panel.
I will try to find out if this is possible and get back to you soon.

@VectorStyler Thanks

@Kumr The first highlighted issue can be fixed by enabling "Half Forms" in the Typography panel "Script Forms" group.

Not sure what is going on in the second highlight, as all I get is that two glyphs are in different order.

@VectorStyler Enabling half forms did fix some text, remaining text still the same. Thanks for the support.

Hope this will be resolved in future versions.

Two different Indian Languages. Top one Indo-European language and bottom one is dravidian language system.

Thanks

@Kumr Thanks for the update. After 1.2 beta is complete this will be one of the things to improve.
