           Summary: Thai combining characters don't combine
           Product: openSUSE 10.2
           Version: Final
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: Thai
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: GNOME - Platform
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome-platform@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: jon@xxxxxxxxx

The Thai alphabet has numerous combining characters. These include vowel and
tone marks.

Vowels should be displayed above or below the consonant with which they're
associated, depending on the vowel in question. Tone marks should be displayed
above the vowel (or above the consonant, where the vowel should appear below
the consonant).

However, in all cases, the vowels and tone marks are displayed following the
consonants. I have noticed this in numerous Gnome/GTK applications, including
Firefox, gucharmap, and gaim. OpenOffice.org (Novell Build 2.0.4.7) is also
affected. This occurs for both Unicode and TIS encodings.

Thai text is displayed correctly in KDE apps including Konqueror, kwrite,
koffice.

This issue also affects Gnome/GTK apps for openSUSE 10.2 final on the x86_64
platform.

This was not an issue with SuSE 10.0 final (32-bit).

Email me for screenshots and additional info as necessary.
