The dropdown list is only visible if 'Complex Text Layout' is activated in
'Setup/Language'. Additionally the dropdown list allows only left > right and
right >left. If you activate additionally 'use asian language' you get right >
left (vertikal).
Left > right (vertikal) as proposed is missing.
Both language settings are deactivated by default here in germany
Most users never would see the possibility to change writimg direction, would
never be aware that changing writing direction is possible in OOWriter. IMHO the
Lotus Smartsuite Solution (4 buttons in page setup, accessible by default,
independendly from language settings) is more user friendly. Changing writing
direction for everybody would allow more complex documents (e.g. for brochueres,
flyers).
Another soulution could be that writing in frames allows to set writing
direction.
Naturally I don't insist on 'Buttons'. The dropdown list for everybody and
additionally equipped with left >right (vertikal) would be sufficient too.
