+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #247233 +++ Description of problem: As a part of request from the community, I am including the Unicode character U+09FA in the Inscript and Phonetic layouts for Assamese. But the rendering of the character is wrong. The character appears above,to the left of the consonant/vowel which follows it. At present, it is appearing in the same line as the character that follows it. Also, it is not a consonant that combines or a vowel mark that affects the pronunciation. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Provided the fonts-bengali are installed, please type the character in raw code. 2. The character should appear to have been typed above left relative to the next vowel/consonant being typed. Should not depend on what follows it and the movement to the upper left shouldn't happen after the consonant/vowel that follows is being typed. 3. Actual results: The character is appearing in line with other characters. Expected results: The character should appear above the line with other characters. Additional info: -- Additional comment from aphukan on 2007-07-06 02:52 EST -- Created an attachment (id=158643) Incorrect rendering while typing -- Additional comment from aphukan on 2007-07-06 02:58 EST -- Created an attachment (id=158644) Correct rendering Please note that though the character appears to combine with the consonant, it is actually not combining. Further more, though the character appears to the above left of the consonant that follows it, while typing it alone, it should appear like when you type superscripts, without change in font size.
