Writing direction for text fields

Now many browsers have a change of text direction in fields, but Opera does not. Why is Opera lagging behind other browsers? Please make this option.

• Right click on text fields and text areas in a page.
• Open "Writing Direction" in context menu.
• Choose between "RTL", "LTR" or "Default".

@MaratTatar Opera doesn't follow the system?

You can try enabling opera://flags/#force-text-direction

@leocg There is a font (Old Turkic script) which is RTL, but I want to use it to write LTR.

opera://flags/#force-text-direction
This only works in the address bar, but when typing messages on sites, it does not work. In other browsers, you can switch on sites too.
