Bi-directional languages and right-to-left user interface

Bidirectional languages and right-to-left user interface

Bidirectional languages are languages that use both right-to-left (RTL) and left-to-right (LTR) reading orders. You need to consider this only if you are localizing to Arabic, Hebrew, or Persian. Soluling supports bidirectional language and right-to-left layouts. Most modern platforms have a good or at least decent support for bidirectional languages. Together with Soluling's support, localization for bidirectional languages gets equally easy to Western languages. The following list contains detailed information on how to enable bidirectional languages and right-to-left layouts on each platform.
