Neil has been useing the API "ExtTextOut" in rendering the text to the window. If you refer to the API documentation at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/gdi/fontext_2ks4.asp You will see that this API has built in RTL support. So if we set the style of the control to WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL the text will be rendered properly and there is no need for special orientation and positioning calculations. The API will be responsible in this effort. I wrote a sample and everything went fine. I will send the sample after some minor modifications _______________________________________________ Scintilla-interest mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.lyra.org/mailman/listinfo/scintilla-interest
