GiderosAndroidPlayer dosn't displayRTL text

hassan

Hello,
I am trying to display an arabic text. It works on Mac player but not on GiderosAndroidPlayer, the letters are disconnected..

I installed GiderosAndroidPlayer directly from Play Store.

Am I missing something? I have added HarfBuzz in the plugins..

Thank you

The HarfBuzz plugin is not included in the player version of the store

You can compile your player with the required plugins:
Click export button - 'no assets'

You do not need to create a separate project for the player, you can export the player directly from the project of your game

All my games have not the same plugins so I created one big player with most plugins, the player is 23Mb.

I created 2 players for myself, with screen rotation and no auto rotation

Thank you @oleg and @MoKaLux..
Finally it worked when I created a player with harfbuzz..
You are really amazing..

@hassan harfbuzz works on android 5 and above. I tried it with android 4.4 but that didn't work (the letters were not RTL).

@MoKaLux Thank you for this information..
Kitkat version has less than 10% worldwide..

I am building arabic learning app, so I absolutely need arabic support.

Is there any alternative?

ps: If I could cover 90% of android versions I would be very happy

If you have trouble displaying characters, you can use a font in png format

@hassan no problem with android 5 and above you will cover most of android, don't worry . gideros and harfbuzz work fine with android 5 and above.
