The visual edit line can be used to edit bidirectional text in visual mode. It is brought up with the visualEditLine action. It is not available on all platforms.

default | If you specify the default parameter for the set visualEditLineDialog command, the current view will use the value of default.visualEditLineDialog to determine where to place the visual edit line. |
on | If you specify the on parameter for the set visualEditLineDialog command, in the current view the visual edit line will display in a dialog at the bottom of the editor view. If you specify the on parameter for the set default.visualEditLineDialog command, the visual edit line will display in a dialog at the bottom of the editor view in all the views that have visualEditLineDialog set to default. |
off | If you specify the off parameter for the set visualEditLineDialog command, in the current view the visual edit line will display over the current element. If you specify the off parameter for the set default.visualEditLineDialog command, the visual edit line will display over the current element in all the views that have visualEditLineDialog set to default. |
install | If you specify the install parameter for the set default.visualEditLineDialog command, all of the views that have visualEditLineDialog set to default will use the value of install.visualEditLineDialog to determine where to place the visual edit line. |
If you do not specify any of the parameters for the set visualEditLineDialog command, default is assumed. If you do not specify any of the parameters for the set default.visualEditLineDialog command, install is assumed.
