Mentioned in 
[Component](https://docs.oracle.com/en%2Fjava%2Fjavase%2F22%2Fdocs%2Fapi%2F%2F/java.desktop/java/awt/Component.html#setComponentOrientation(java.awt.ComponentOrientation))
 class about UNKNOWN orientation

`At construction time, a component's orientation is set to 
ComponentOrientation.UNKNOWN, indicating that it has not been specified 
explicitly. The UNKNOWN orientation behaves the same as 
ComponentOrientation.LEFT_TO_RIGHT. `
