Title: Localization between left to right and Right to Left Languages
Post by: rwhitten on October 13, 2013, 12:07:47 PM

I'm trying to release a demo this week for an overseas customer and we have been using a dynamic font that supports English and Arabic characters.  All of our text is translated and setup in the localization files but I just noticed that the Arabic translation is getting flipped when we switch.  Is there support to handle switching from a left to right language and right to left language?

NGUI has no special support for RTL languages. You'd have to flip the text yourself.

Any idea why the text would be flipping on it's own?  We have it written in the text files correctly and the encoding it set to UTF-8.  When I put a line of Arabic and English mixed together like this سمعيSoundLabelصوت.  The first Arabic word is flipped the "soundLabel" text is fine and the last Arabic word is flipped.  I can't tell what it is going on but I thought it was something with the encoding, any Ideas what it might be?
