Hello. I am wondering if someone knows when we will have full support to insert Hebrew Text in the Canvas tool. Since the text gets out of order when I insert it, the tool is useless to me.

    Sorry, I can't tell you when, but I'm totally with you on the need for it!

    I decided to try out canvas tonight and no dice also on the Hebrew.

    Seems "align" and also the "right to left" drop down do nothing for Hebrew.

    Does anyone know how to make this work? Not a major issue for me just thought I'd try to see if i can use this feature.

    Like the OP I can't use it if it doesn't support Hebrew.

    I agree the insert passage feature needs to be fixed. I had the same issue when using the insert passage feature in the Canvas tool.  

    I tried copying and pasting the text from both the LHB & the AFAT into the tool and it did align properly. A temporary work around until the tool is fixed.

    This is not full support, but it works fine for me as a workaround.

    Use Copy Bible Verses or Copy directly from your Hebrew Text.

    Click inside Canvas and Press Ctrl+V (Windows) on the Keyboard. (The context menu in Canvas won't work for this)

    This will insert the Hebrew Text.
