What version of Trados Studio are you using and please can you provide a small test file... preferably an sdlxliff.  Zip it and you can attach to your reply using the "Insert" menu.

Dear Paul,

Thanks for your quick response. Kindly find attached the test file and a screen shot - Version used is Trados 2022 version 17.0.5.147557

You will see the modifications made to diacritics causing letters to be disconnected where unmodified letters are connected in their contexttest.txt_en-US_ar-SA.rar

Dear asa sdsd,

I created a short video to show you what I'm seeing and have a couple of questions:

1. I have no problem selecting whole words with the Ctrl+Shift+Left Arrow.  Perhaps you can also create a video and explain wat you're doing as it happens?
2. I have no idea how to remove diacritics from a letter.  This isn't possible in a European language, I would have to replace the entire letter.  Can you also explain how this works?  A video with the view blown up so we can clearly see the actions would be helpful.

Dear Paul,

As I said before, there is no problem in translation mode, the problem occurs when you use the review mode with track changes. Here is the file again and try to edit diacritics in review mode and select the entire word using keyboard in review mode.3326.test.txt_en-US_ar-SA.rar

I added diacritics to the entire file, you can try in review mode

I was in review mode with track changes!  I tested again with your new file and this time I can reproduce the problem of selection.

But you have still not explained how to deal with the removal of a diacritic without replacing the letter completely?

In fact I can reproduce this in any mode!

try to remove the diacritics only without removing the letter as happens in Microsoft Word, it won't. Try to edit diacritics by inserting another diacritic using shift + w, shift + q, shift + r, shift + a in Arabic keyboard mode, it will not appear

Can you help here?  Perhaps provide a short video of how this is supposed to work?  It's very difficult for me to reproduce this without a better explanation or preferably a short video while making the changes.  In fact showing how it works in MS Word would also help.

Please note that when you rewrite the entire word and inserting your own diacritics, there is no problem in translation or review mode, the problem occurs when you edit a single diacritic but when rewriting, there is no problem
