Hi,

No, not right now.

@dukke thanks very much, is it possible to give me some hints about how can I do that? I am familiar with css but have no idea if I can use its related commands in javafx and make it right to left or not?
thanks

Hi @am2222 !

First of all I don't really know how this is done. I've quickly searched the web but don't see any references about this in the microsoft ribbon..

Can you check and see if you find anything on how microsoft does this? I don't mean code wise, I mean how microsoft ribbon works in this case from a user point of view.

Thanks!

@dukke hi,
You mean the way that a RTL ribbon is shown?Does it matter about the language? for example I have a few C# ribbon controls which are RTL I can share them if they are usefull

[dukke]

Yes.

I would want to know how the official Microsoft Ribbon handles this..

Thanks,

[am2222]

@dukke this is an example of RTL ribbon, But it is from devexpress C# controls but all the ribbons are just the same as this one

[dukke]

Sounds good to me!

@dukke Is there any chance to make it right to left? or if you please give me some hints I'll try by myself, I am new with javafx anyway

[dukke]

@dukke thanks very much so if it is possible please tell me which files should be edited thanks

I've been doing some testing and this actually seems quite easy to do.
I can do it myself or you could do it if you want to learn the basics for future contributions?

[dukke]

A solution is:

• Use NodeOrientation property from Node that is inhereted by the Ribbon class
• Bind NodeOrientation property of Ribbon to RibbonTab instance in RibbonSkin class
• Also change the layout for the QuickAccessBar according to NodeOrientation of Ribbon, in RibbonSkin

That's it, I think..

[dukke]

Also a test class in the Test folder that shows a RTL ribbon working would be nice..

@dukke thanks very much, I'll try to do it myself, I hope I can manage to do it. thanks very much
