Re: [platform-swt-dev] Right to left Text fields

Oh! I just discovered that I can't use StyledText with Right to left language? is this right? cause the example I'm working with doesn't even convert from left to right when I press the keys in the keyboard.
 
I really need help here, if someone can lead me to a way to do this fast, cause I need to make my mind before next sunday, it's either this or I even don't get to do it with Java, this way I will have to do it with Visual C++, and I don't want to.
 
So, what I need to know is, can I do SWT to work completely right with right to left languages (Arabic/Hebrow), the op. system will be windows (at least for non-English versions). If yes, please expalin, or lead me to a proper document.
 
Thanks for your help in advance.
 
Regards

Are you referring toText or StyledText?  What platform are you on?  What build are you running?

Hi;
 
I'm trying to do something with right to left text, I can write right to left with the keyboard when I used the shortkeys for that, but I want to know if there is a way I can do this in my code, the same go for output on a text field, even it's in a right to left language, it's still left to right in direction, please, this is so important to be solved before this week, or I will have to reDOOOO the whole thing with swing :(
 
By right to left languages I mean Arabic and Hebrow
 
Regards
