------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Dec 17 15:47:11 -0800 2005 ------- The canvas needs to display the columns from right to left if the locale is set to Hebrew, Arabic or Syriac. ie, cell A1 is displayed in the top-right corner instead of the top-left. This is an extremely serious issue for users of OO in RTL languages because of formatting of speadsheets coming from excel. Example: They have their speadsheets set up to use columns A->E,F,G... but being displayed RTL instead of LTR. When opened in OO calc, the columns showup as LTR. Suggested fix: When the locale is set to hebrew, Arabic or another RTL language, display columns as RTL, hopefully the navigation system will not have to be reversed.
