Hello,
After the latest update of MetaTrader 5, I encountered an issue with the Text Object tool. Before the update, I was able to write Arabic text correctly on the chart. However, after the update, Arabic words now appear reversed or mirrored (for example, the word "بابا" is displayed incorrectly).
It is important to note that when I switch the platform interface to Arabic, menus and messages are displayed properly, so the issue seems to be limited to the Text Object tool itself. It looks like the update changed how the platform handles RTL (right-to-left) languages, and Arabic text is now being forced into LTR (left-to-right) rendering.
I kindly request that the development team review this issue and restore proper support for Arabic text in chart annotations. This feature is very important for Arabic-speaking users who rely on notes and labels in their trading analysis.
Thank you for your support.
