    • Windows 7, QtCreator (any version) WITH HEBREW/ARABIC (RTL language) installed on the system.

      When Hebrew/Arabic (or any other ? right to left language) installed on the system (windows), when accidentally pressing Ctrl+Shift and not stretching the action with an arrow (like is generally used for selecting a line of text) causes the cursor to change sides.
      This is a Qt Creator specific behavior that is very much annoying! and happens all the time, until you develop a second sense just to avoid that accidental key press. But even then, it happens.

      Add to that - that when it happens to new users, it takes some time to understand why on earth is that cursor moving backwards??

      to re-create this issue just install a right-to-left language on any windows desktop (can be undone afterwards

      Thanks
