right to left reading order

[Attus]

is this possible in a simple edit box?

There is a special character that will revert any edit zone. Can't remember which ASCII code, but you can probably find it yourself in an ASCII table

I'm sorry, but what is ASCII and how to use it? :crazy:

[Corentin]

I guess Wikipedia will answer far better than I.

RTL isn't an ASCII code, it's a Unicode, um, "code".
ASCII is only US English, and was 7-bit. Extended ASCII (which is what most people call ASCII these days, and is 8-bit) also contains a lot of accented characters used in European languages, but is still strictly left-to-right, and has no right-to-left code.
Other languages had their own character sets, but they're all largely superseded by Unicode.
Unicode can be thought of as extended extended ASCII, as it starts with the same characters, then adds a LOT more (it's 16-bit). There is an 8-bit encoding of Unicode called UTF-8 which is binary identical to ASCII as long as you only use characters that are in ASCII, but can show any Unicode characters.

The Unicode character "203D" (a hex number) is the force right-to-left character. But if you use characters from a right-to-left language in an edit box it should flip automatically.

Sorry for the mis-information Attus, glad Dynasoft went by to make this right.
