Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 12867
rtl button not working
Last modified: 2008-05-17 23:29:30 UTC
when the rtl button is pressed it doesnt do anything - it doesnt right justify arabic text nor does - it flip/mirror the sheet. that is in english the columns are named ABC, when rtl is pressed the sheet should flip and read (from left) CBA as arabic starts from the right scrollbar area. (altruistically, scrollbar flipping to the left is a user preference)
this is in calc. the rtl button works perfectly in writer
DL->OC: Would you please takeover?
The buttons only change the cell's writing direction, not the alignment. The flipping of the sheet is planned for OOo2.0
Reassigned to Falko as the responsible one for the component L10N.
* directioanlity inside a cell works in 1.1 * sheet directionality control is covered in issue #13159
So this is fixed than?? If so please change status to Fixed. Thx.
looks more like a dup to me. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 13159 ***
