This is a verbatim copy of the conversation that took place on Betawikis "Support" page, describing the problem:
The Gadget "Buttons to force text direction of text area." creates the same problem for me that is described in [https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9902 bug 9902] - there should be a line wrap allowed, between the "bidi=override" button, and the edit box's <textarea>.
I tried to find the place to fix it but I was unsuccessfull. It is likely hidden in some javascript. A good chance could be imho, to insert just another item - a simple space - at the same place as the buttons, once the last button has been inserted in [[MediaWiki:Gadget-bidibuttons.js]], but I do not know well enough how that is done to take the risk to experiment.

::::Needs to be adressed by a MediaWiki dev. Should be in buzilla, too, I think, and probably be handled though there. [[User_talk:Siebrand|Siebrand]] 10:23, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
