Beginners' Questions Punctuation in text line moves to beginning of sentence when entered

    Help!ย  This is a weird and annoying behavior that has begun in the last 2 weeks.ย  We are running inkscape 1.1 on a windows 10 PC and all has been working great for months.ย ย 

    Now for no apparent reason, when you enter a line of text followed by a punctuation symbol (period, exclamation point, comma, etc.) the punctuation moves to the front of the sentence when you hit the enter key.

    What is causing this?ย  I don't see anything about RTL / LTR selections that would move only punctuation.ย  What is happening and any suggetions on how to correct this?

    Solved - that one proved to be easy.ย  I see that when using the text function there is a button with a small head and several lines representing text.ย  That is a RTL / LTL selector, however it only appears to change the placement of the punctuation, not actually the text entered.ย  Anyway, I had accidentally hitย the button at some point causing the punctuation to be effected,.
