Is there a plan to support Arabic language and other RTL languages in the game UI? Note that the RTL option in the TMP Text doesn’t do the job correctly.
Edit: I mean in game UI, not the editor language.
Yes its on our roadmap. We are waiting for TMP to have full support. TMP devs are working on it but its likely several months out.

Thank you. I hope it doesn’t delay any longer, because this feature has been requested for years.
Any news about this?
Still waiting on text mesh pro. Looking at later in the year. There’s a third party tool that works at the moment https://discussions.unity.com/t/704712
Hi @karl_jones , I´m also just looking into this. Any news or a roadmap where we can check the status ourselves from time to time?
Somewhere here maybe? https://unity.com/de/roadmap/unity-platform/gameplay-ui-design
Im not aware of anything like that at the moment. Ill see if we can get something added.

It’s a little embarrassing that Unity has multiple blog posts about things like supporting developers in Pakistan when Urdu is, like many Arabic-derived languages, written right to left. The TMP support for this has been a known issue since they first implemented RTL support, which I believe was before Unity ever acquired them.
