It seems that FireMonkey controls lack any property for supporting BiDi since 2011 http://qc.embarcadero.com/wc/qcmain.aspx?d=98644<br />I attached a project that identifies the Arabic problems on the Android platform<br />https://www.dropbox.com/s/6uieewmcfq8xlno/Arabic.zip<br />I just want the text to display correctly when running the application on my nexus 7, please help! I am sure there is a trick to get it working but I cannot find it :(<br />Thank you - RayAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00956676412268114665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29331675.post-6683898840855045662013-10-09T17:39:40.160+02:002013-10-09T17:39:40.160+02:00As far as I am concerned, yes.
