Poor Bi-directional RTL support in Zotero's User Interface (UI)

davidvontamar
I study both English Literature (LTR) and Hebrew Literature (RTL), and Zotero always aligns Hebrew text to the left. In the reference list, you'll always see the ending of each label and the rest cropped in each column. It is difficult to browse, sort, and organize my library, because it is fairly mixed. I have to have both RTL and LTR support at the same time, not either-or. In addition to the reference list, the collection list is strictly aligned to the left as well, having the same problems displaying Hebrew text like the reference list. Lately, I even began searching for a Zotero alternative with proper bi-directional support, but all the alternatives are far worse. I am desperate to find a solution.

    You may already be aware, but the Zotero 7 Beta includes full support for RTL text in the item list with correct cropping behavior, as well as fixes for many layout bugs when Zotero itself is set to a right-to-left language.
