Leela, thank you for reporting the bug. It seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away.
Hello Team, As suggested installed new version in a fresh instance but same issue table direction changes from LTR instead of RTL. As explained issue present only for Arabic tables
I confirm it with Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 2934472ab888ebfe64a153984af2902fac63a7a0 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB Calc: CL in comparison to Word 206
Leela, your attachments have contact information for several real people. I suggest you replace the information with made-up text, or just dummy text like "123", "ABC", aliph-ba-ta-tha etc. Also, in your reproduction instructions, you say you've created an "Arabic Document (LTR)". Are you sure your original document was in Left-to-Right direction, despite using the Arabic language? You also write that when opening the document, "the alignment is perfect with LTR" - but when I open your document with LO (7.3), the page style is RTL and the paragraphs are all RTL.
