Hi Zaher,<br>
2011/10/10 Zaher Dirkey <<a href="mailto:parmaja@gmail.com" target="_blank">parmaja@gmail.com</a> <mailto:<a href="mailto:parmaja@gmail.com" target="_blank">parmaja@gmail.com</a>>><div><br>
In short to understand what happened<br>
----------<br>
Imagine that you made an English tools worked fine for you (not multi<br>
language tools), and you send it to me, that tools will flip to use RTL in<br>
my system with English language.<br>
----------<br>
<br>
I agree with you, but most Delphi developers decided that the want more Delphi<br>
approach rather then anything else, so that why you have that code afaik.<br>
It's time to think what we prefer, Delphi computability or decide if we want to<br>
set new ground rules.<br>

<br>
ido, are you saying that delphi compiled english language apps that are executed on RTL systems will flip the english backwards and display it RTL instead of LTR???<br>
<br></blockquote></div><div><br>As far as I understand, yes. I never tried it myself, or seen their code for that.<br>There was a discussion at the forums or here at the malling list (I can not find it) early this year about this subject. <br>

<br></blockquote></div></div><div><br>Hi Ido, I think this piece of code belong to you, i want to understand the original problem, maybe we can resolve it in another way. <br></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br>Yes, it was mine (I can't find the original discussion about it though)<br>

Also the default GTK behavior works the same, so if your locale is a right to left language, even if you did not translated anything, it will mirror everything.<br>Personally I think that the developer should choose, and not the system, but it was to solve the comparability issues. <br>
