It is seen JTextArea.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT) orientation is not honoured if it is called after setText() and remain at LTR orientation. It changes the orientation only if some more text is typed additionally to existing text. This behaviour is different from JTextField where the RTL orientation is honoured from start. Proposed fix is to check for ComponentOrientation propertyChange event and set i18n property if it is not set, so that orientation is honoured as soon as setComponentOrientation() is called. Checked for all L&Fs in all supported platforms.
