hello all

 

Does the ribbon menu support right-to-left?

I could not find it..

I checked the window rtf property , I checked the app rtf property .. but the ribbon menu is still on the left

 

Is it possible ?

 

Thanks

Right-to-Left support for RibbonBar not currently in the schedule.  Our focus is first to make the control a good solution for majority of the customers that go Left-to-Right.  Then, depending on demand of RibbonBar from our customers that need Right-to-Left support, we will consider it for the roadmap.  You can consider taking a look at third-party solution such as Ultimate Suite UI Controls to see if they support Right-to-Left today.

Our roadmap decisions are driven by customer demand rather then copying a particular 3rd party product. Also, certainly the first version of our Ribbon control is not going to match the third-party version developed for many years. Anyway, I'm sorry but adding RTL to the Ribbon control is not high priority so it is unrealistic to expect this in lets say 6 months. Why won't you just buy PBUS?

I do hope Hebrew and RTL will be native in the next releases of pb next year or so …

Thanks any way

Hi Moshe,

It looks to me like RibbonBar control in PB 2019 R2 does not have RTL support in the customer beta version. Also, I expect it for R2 final release. I expect more features like RTL and editor improvements will be added in later releases. The incremental approach of Appeon.

I like Appeon's approach of adding an MVP (min. viable product) edition of each new feature; then gradually extend that feature in later releases guided by customer feedback - like your question here, enhancement requests, and discussions at user groups and conferences.

Like NativePDF; extended in each release since PB 2017 GA. Like UI Themes; extended in R2. Like new WebBrowser in R2. Like C# Interop code generator in R2.

HTH /Michael

Thanks Michael for recognizing our MVP approach. We hope this allows us to more quickly arrive at the features customers really want to use in real-life projects. :-)

THX. NativePDF is a stereotype example of the modern "lean circle of life" = Build-Measure-Learn (repeat).
