[QUOTE="morpheus_xx, post: 1106875, member: 48495"] I spent some more hours in testing of algorithmen, none was perfect (no surprise though!). So back to start. As I've read about DirectWrite, I digged more into the API description and found very useful things for our task: [LIST] [*][url]http://sharpdx.org/documentation/api/t-sharpdx-directwrite-textlayout[/url] [*][url]http://sharpdx.org/documentation/api/m-sharpdx-directwrite-bitmaprendertarget-drawglyphrun-1[/url] [/LIST] TextLayout does everything which I tried to implement manually. In combination with a custom renderer this brings us much further now. I implemented a custom renderer, which now takes the "pre-processed" textparts, along with position info and an RTL/LTR indicator. My current logic still tries to bring string into matching order. This will have issues and is only temporary. The final solution will be to let the custom renderer directly create the BitmapCharacters and their positions. Once this is done, we should have correct support for LTR, RTL and mixed contents.
