Hi All

I think there is a problem with writing in a text area from right to left even after choosing “right” from horisontal alignment … any clue for this .

Regards

If you really want to write text right to left in a TextArea, that is not currently supported. It would mean changing the text-areas orientation, not alignment.

The support for component orientation is already registered in Servoy Support System.
