Description Kit Lo

Build ID: I20070601-1539

Steps To Reproduce:
When running Eclipse in RTL mode, the "remote" preview is on the right (closer to the navigation tree on the right) and the "local" preview is on the left. (See screen capture.)

Technically the compare contents are still correct. But, it'd be better if we mirror the UI in RTL mode.

Are you saying that in RTL mode the local contents should be on the right? The choice of what side the local contents is on is arbitrary. Why would reversing it for RTL mode be helpful? It may be helpful to note that we had this discussion in the past and the decision was made not to reverse the sides since the original choice was arbitrary anyway.

Thanks Michael. I was not aware of the discussion in the past. After hearing your explaination, I agree with you. Thanks!
