How to stop type going from right to left from cursor
Is a right-to-left language enabled on your machine (Hebrew or
Arabic)? You may have accidentally hit a keyboard shortcut to change input language (LeftAlt+Shift), but since you didn't change the keyboard, you'd still be typing English letters. Or maybe if you ever pasted something into your document, it brought with it one of those language labels. Or you might have "Detect language automatically" turned on. On Jan 29, 5:43*pm, R. S.
