You need to file a bugzilla until then you need to copy the code from
JFace, add the right aligning and keep it in your project until JFace
has shipped the fix.

Please post the bugzilla id here.

BTW if you are crossposting please do it in one mail!

This is a jface related question,but since the solution may b a simple one will resolve it here,but if the problem continues please post your further queries to Jface forum.

Done. Looks like a JFace bug.

Try setting SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT

Just for the records: it does not work.

private TextLayout getSharedTextLayout(Display display) {
		if (cachedTextLayout == null) {
			int orientation = viewer.getControl().getStyle() & (SWT.LEFT_TO_RIGHT | SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT);
			//viewer.getColumnViewerOwner(getColumn().)
			cachedTextLayout = new TextLayout(display);
			cachedTextLayout.setOrientation(orientation);
		}
		return cachedTextLayout;
	}
