direction variable

I'd like to suggest the addition of the choice of each skin to be LTR (left-to-right) or RTL (right-to-left) to make the change for each element in the defult skin easy to be changed.

The main problem occures when trying to use the board with a RTL language, the admin should go alot of HTML templates to change some element allignments.

I spend allot of time doing the HTML template changes every time they come up with a new release !! I even didn't work with the new 2.1.x release until they are done with the new revision 2.1.2!

:(

:angry: isn't there any attention to non English users?! :angry:

I think its a valid point, so why don't you put in a BUG REPORT
or email the developers. It's not so much a suggestion for a something that "would be nice to have"...
It is an omission that in this day and age should be fixed...

What might be better is if there was a seperate default skin for RTL languages. If all you want to do is change the direction of text, isn't this a style, and then you could just change it in your stylesheet?

Question: CSS is independent per skin. Why don't you just set everything in the CSS? I haven't used the RTL / LTR attributes much, but my understanding was you could do it in the CSS.

classname {
direction: ltr;
}

for example. You could do this for the body tag and it should apply for the whole body (in theory).
