[QUOTE="morpheus_xx, post: 1105289, member: 48495"] This thread is about adding support for languages that are written right-to-left. Supporting Hebrew depends on two things: [LIST] [*]using a font which supports Hebrew characters [*]updating layouting engine to support "right to left" (RTL) languages [/LIST] First I'd like to show the current situation: This is the source, translation added at transifex webservice:[ATTACH=full]156421[/ATTACH] And this MP2 in default skin looks like:[ATTACH=full]156422[/ATTACH] I put a color border around the same words. If you look at them, you see them in "reversed order" rendered in MP2. This is due to the "right to left" writing order in Hebrew. Does any of our [USERGROUP=39][USERGROUP=39]@Developers[/USERGROUP][/USERGROUP] [USERGROUP=40][USERGROUP=40]@Testers[/USERGROUP][/USERGROUP] [USERGROUP=92][USERGROUP=92]@SuperUser[/USERGROUP][/USERGROUP], [USER=92067]@yoavain[/USER] have experiences with those kind of languages? What other requirements to layout are there? Would it be required to switch complete menu to the right side (instead as shown above on left side)? Or would it be enough to support text properly? [USER=89929]@staticx[/USER] as you pointed us to the issue, what do you think? [/QUOTE]
