Support for right-to-left language characters

Why are Arabic letters broken into Arabic words?

Hey Abdullah and Eman thank you for posting in the Lucid community! Our sincere apologies for the delayed response on this thread - I wanted to follow up in case this answer may still be useful to you and to provide a solution for other users who see this thread in the future.

Unfortunately right-to-left languages such as Arabic are not currently supported in Lucidchart. However, we highly value user feedback. If you’re willing to share, we’d love to hear more details about your use case or what you’d like to see in this experience within this thread. I’ve also converted this post to an idea so that it’s visible to others within the Product Feedback section of the community - from here, they can upvote it and add details of their own.

Finally, for more information on how Lucid manages feedback via this community, take a look at this post:

It's 2022 and the first request for Arabic has been made in 2019 will it ever be supported ?

@abdellah s Thanks for continuing this thread! Our development team is aware of the high popularity of the request for right-to-left language support and continues to evaluate it in context of our roadmap development strategy and other requests. I apologize for any inconvenience this causes in your day-to-day work! The best way to voice your support for this feature is to upvote this request and to use this thread to share the specific context and use case for your need. This allows our product team to make decisions that improve your user experience in the best way possible. We're grateful for your feedback!

The Arabic community is still waiting for your support. We have paid subscription fees to use your software and one aspect of using it is actually using our letters!

I have noticed that this request is not unique or new to you and I urge you to please consider supporting the Arabic language as soon as possible. So many great charts are being made without utilizing the capabilities of Lucidchart. Which is a bummer especially for those who subscribed.

Hi @badr a thanks for continuing this thread and sharing your thoughts. I understand how the addition of Arabic can be useful for many users.

The best way to add your voice is by upvoting and commenting here. The more requests we receive the more likely this is to be prioritized by our Product Development team! 

Thanks again for your willingness to share your ideas with us--Cheers!

Kind of shocking that it has been two years with no implementation. 

This makes the software somewhat useless to my organization. 

Hi. It’s 2024, and Hebrew is still not supported.
