[jira] Commented: (OFBIZ-854) implementing rtl in project

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-854?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12485082 ] 

Majid Kalkatechi commented on OFBIZ-854:
----------------------------------------

I copied the last comment of mine from OFBIZ-852 issue, and I think it's a good place to start: 
The problem of parentheses, make sense when we use "Latin alphabet" in rtl direction, Arabic alphabet ,as I tested, didn't have any problem,even in 'order list' screen. 
Now, I'm thinking how we can change direction automatically in page, my best idea is to put it in properties file, so it became part of internationalization system. 
But as we can see, some elements of a page always have "Latin alphabet" (like language select box), this elements have to keep thier ltr direction, even in rtl contexts.

> As a result of 'OFBIZ-852' issue, to use ofbiz in some languages (farsi, arabic ...) that the direction of sentences is right-to-left, the first thing is to make the page direction changed, this change of direction is based on the locale of system, and also there is some elements that need to be left-to-right even in rtl languages. So, there must be an approach to tackle this.
