Re: [platform-ui-dev] Workbench BIDI support flips everything?

The image being flipped is something that is an issue in TPTP. It appears
that they are not checking the orientation of thier editor when they
render thier image.
We had this issue in several places when we did the support for BIDI in
3.1 and that is why we have alternative icons in many places in our Hebrew
and Arabic catalogues. This looks like a generated image so they will
likely be able to fix this within thier code.

[platform-ui-dev] Workbench BIDI support flips everything?
When we conduct our globalization testing for BIDI support, we usually set
the system locale to a BIDI language speaking country (e.g. Hebrew in
Israel) in "Regional and Language Options" if not on a native platform.
Starting eclipse this way doesn't seem to make the workbench
right-to-left. However, in TPTP, we have a Test Log Viewer editor that
contains a graphical pie chart. The pie chart is displayed correctly in
this case (note the legend used to be on the right hand side of the pie in
a English locale, as well as inside the legend, icons used to be at the
left side of the text pass, fail...):
However, if I use "-dir rtl" or "-nl he" with eclipse.exe, the workbench
started with all UI parts flipped including the pie chart which is no
longer readable:
Which one is the correct case with BIDI language like Hebrew? Does
eclipse.exe has to be started with -dir or -nl options on a BIDI system?
If so, should all the graphics be flipped at all?
Your help on this will be very appreciated.
