[x64] Dialogs are messed up when RTL language is selected

Post by *Sob »

I found it by accident, while testing something else. The dialogs are clearly wrong, with items all over the place, some of them missing completely, etc.. Tested with Arabic and Hebrew, although I don't understand any of them.

This is a known limitation of TC8: I haven't added support for right to left text yet. The problem is that Lazarus itself seems to try something with right to left which messes up my own code. Therefore this will need to major changes. I plan to add this before the final release, though.

Seems to be fixed in beta 3 as far as I can tell.
