Thanks for the example, I think I got your point. From my understanding,
I think text and paragraph direction should be only controlled by
\textdir and \pardir respectively, whatever \pagedir or \bodydir are.
Indeed, I don't see why \bodydir would influence the text direction
inside boxes.
Regards,
Khaled
