Problems with RTL text direction of target .srt file in Hebrew

Question

Hello! 
 I'm using the subtitling app in Trados Studio 2021 and have translated an .srt file from English to Hebrew. 
 On the edit screen, the Hebrew text is represented correctly, however, the target translation file has issues with RTL word order. 
 The text is in the correct order but punctuation marks that should be at the end of the line are now at the beginning of the line. 
 I hope that someone can help me, I would be really grateful! 
 Kind regards, 
 Ebba Tate

Hello Ebba Tate , 
 So that we can try and reproduce this, can you tell us please the exact version of Studio you are running please (Help About Trados Studio) and whether you are using SRT file type out of the box, or the downloaded version from the AppStore. 
 It would be good if you could also share a sample file and screenshots of what you are seeing and what would be expected.

 What happens if you delete the SRT filetype and use the out of the box subtitling filetype for this instead? So remove or disable this filetype and create the project again using this one:

Thanks Ebba Tate 
 I have verified the problem and logged a support case - 00625233 - for the problem. Once the support team have validated this they will most likely escalate to development for a fix. 
 In the meantime you could fix this fairly easily in a text editor that supports regex. For example, search for this: 
 (.+)\.(?<=.)\r$ 
 Replace with this: 
 .$1 
 At least that's the syntax for the editor I use. I'll send you the file you sent me so you can check it and perhaps it'll be helpful?
