Enabling Right to Left

[RobFolland]

I am currently using Stimulsoft Reports.Net version 2014.1.1900 and I am trying to print reports right to left. I have enabled all the right to left properties in the components but my report still comes out left to right. I have attached my report file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Thanks for replying so quickly. I have download the 2015 version of Stimulsoft (I'm not sure how to get patches for 2014) and the problem still exists. I have attached a simple mrt. I added a Table and set the table to right to left but it doesn't appear to work, the table is still displayed left to right. I even tried generating the files on an Arabic version of Windows but without success.

Hello, Rob.

There is no universal property in our product that you could set.
Please, set the Right To Left property of all cell where you need to show Right To Left text.
Or you need to change order of the columns?

Thank you.

I need to change the order of the columns.

Dear Rob,

Thank you again for the request.

We have made improvement.
The Right To Left property for the table components will work in the rendered report.

Changes will be available in the prerelease build from Friday this week - September, 11.

Please let us know whether this will work for you after you test it.
Thank you.

Thanks for the update. The column order is now right to left as expected however I also need the cells in the table to be right to left. The cell property is available and working in Stimulsoft.NET 2014 but does not appear to be there in 2015?

Hello, Rob.

You should set the Right To Left property of the each cell.
Please, look at the attached report.

Hi Aleksey,

I downloaded your mrt file and I'm a bit confused as it hasn't got a DataTable and its the cells inside a DataTable that I'm trying to display RightToLeft. If I add <RightToLeft>True</RightToLeft> to each cell in the MRT file (as in Stimusoft 2014) then the data appears on the right but this property isn't available in the Designer UI so I'm not sure if this is the correct thing to do.

Also the text is right justified whereas I was expecting it to be reversed eg 12345 if RightToLeft is False, would appear as 54321 if RightToLeft is set to True.

Thanks for your prompt reply.
