Will this bug be addressed for 3.2.1?  If this requires alot of changes (for a maintenance release) then can this one be targetted for 3.3?
Comment 3 Curtis d'Entremont CLA 2006-07-31 13:57:54 EDT
The changes would be significant so 3.3.
Comment 4 Chris Goldthorpe CLA 2007-04-17 16:32:07 EDT
We do not have time to do this in Eclipse 3.3
Comment 5 Tod Creasey CLA 2007-06-08 08:13:13 EDT
Adding Bug 142623 as these are relate issues
Comment 6 Chris Goldthorpe CLA 2007-06-22 14:14:40 EDT
I started looking at why this is happening. In the into html and css files for the two themes there is are many (about 280) hard coded references to left and right. This is not something that we could fix for 3.3.x. 
Comment 7 Chris Goldthorpe CLA 2007-06-26 17:24:45 EDT
Setting priority to P2.

Are we still planning to fix this for R3.4?

Comment 10 Chris Goldthorpe CLA 2008-04-14 11:53:21 EDT
Yes, this is something I'm going to be working on this milestone (M7).
Comment 11 Chris Goldthorpe CLA 2008-05-21 17:17:16 EDT
I can't make any changes to to Eclipse for 3.4 but I will make some suggestions as to how to use CSS in the nl folders to get the text to flow from right to left. Unfortunately I have so far been unable to come up with css that moves the image to the right of each block of each block of text that works on both IE and Firefox. I will keep looking into this.
