Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 30631
R2L enabled controls
Last modified: 2010-10-25 12:32:10 UTC
In regions where people uses right-to-left directed text like Arabia or Israel (Hebrew) forms will look strange if they need to use left-to-right layout control forms. This specification will enhance OpenOffice.org 2.0 with control forms that can have both text directions/layout - left-to-right and right-to-left.
FT: Set status to STARTED since review requests are created.

FT: Spec gone Gold (final). Creating subtask for implementation.
according to http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=releases&msgNo=7690 this issue will be set to OOoLater
Any chance of this issue moving up the list a bit? With the new database front end in OOo, the lack of a way to control directionality in forms makes it rather hard to deal with databases containing Hebrew data, thus by and large eliminating most of the advantages of this new features for the Israeli/Arab/Farsi market.

ayaniger->ft: Any progress on this issue? It's been two years since it got the status "Started".
Falko is no longer working for OOo. Let me try to get the discussion going again. From what I understand from the specification draft we have some new elements: - a form will somehow "inherit" its orientation from the document or parts of it (currently it gets it from the UI) - this orientation will used inside the controls (so far so good) - the form layout itself should be mirrored in case the orientation is R2L; this is the part I don't understand. Is it because we still want to design the form in L2R layout? I hope I can get Falko to give some comments about his spec though he now has other working assignments. But hopefully other people can help me to understand the idea also.
