Description Emad Al-Agouz CLA 2005-02-03 08:05:56 EST 
Tested on Win2K Arabic default locale, Version: 3.1.0 Build id: N20050203-0010 
with Arabic Translation Fragments and launched with rtl direction.

1.Create a simple project from file>>new>>project>>simple
2.Create a new Flow diagram from file>>new>>example>>GEF>>FlowDiagram

Note that the GEF Flow Diagram editor is not RTL mirrored in this build while 
it was in a previous build (build id: N20050203-0010).

And this editor affects the translation support in another product.
Please provide fast RTL orientation support for this editor.

Moving to Platform/UI for comments.

Is there any reason why an EditorPart which was being mirrored is all of a 
sudden no longer mirrored?  Did the workbench decide that editors should always 
be LTOR?
Comment 2 Randy Hudson CLA 2005-02-03 11:45:47 EST 
I received information offline that this Editor is not mirrored, but two other 
GEF editors are mirrored. So it's probably not an issue of the parenting 
composite being set to LTOR.

After looking at the difference in the 3 editors, the one which is not mirrored 
uses a copy (in GEF) of the SashForm class from SWT. Probably something needs 
to be re-copied from SWT to fix the problem.

Pratik, I suspect our Splitter class needs updating.
Comment 4 Cam-Thu Le CLA 2005-02-10 11:40:59 EST 
Randy, can the bug be fixed and verified by mid March ?

The composite given to an EditorPart is LEFT_TO_RIGHT

I've tracked down a dupe and simultaneously bothered Tod.

Comment 9 Emad Al-Agouz CLA 2005-03-17 03:29:28 EST 
This defect is not duplicate of the 82951...
Please refer to Comment #9 and Comment #10 in defect #82951....
Thank you
Comment 10 Randy Hudson CLA 2005-03-17 09:46:22 EST 
It is a duplicate. Next time someone tells you to open another bug for another 
component, please provide a link back to the suggestion so that duplicates can 
be identified sooner.  Ideally, Tod would not have told you to open a duplicate 
and just CC'ed me on the original bug.
