Bashir, Amine,

There is an initiative underway to refactor the UI. During the upcoming weeks there will be a lot of activity going on in this area. The right-to-left layout issues you are facing should be solved at the conclusion of the refactor.

If you would like to contribute to the effort, please spend some time reading this Jira issue:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-241

and its sub-tasks. I have taken on the role of coordinating this effort, so let me know if you are interested.

-Adrian

Amine,
It would be great if we work together for this full functional Arabic
version of OFBiz. As I have understood, I need to use the Resource Bundle
Editor Eclipse plug in. I will check that. Regards,
Bashir

Hello,

I already posted ana rabic translation for common and accounting they are
not complete but they are quite full,
If you want to get it correctly you should use the Property bundle plugin
that gets with eclipse, it 's the only way to get around.
I send you the arabic files I could do.
It's will be great if we work together to have a fully functional arabic
version of Ofbiz.

Regards.
Amine.

Torstan,

As an example, here is a screen shot of how one label appears in the
Create
Agreement Screen.
http://www.nabble.com/file/6705/ArabicLabel.JPG

The Character encoding of the browser is set by default to
Unicode(UTF-8).
if changed to Arabic(Windows-1256) the second screen shot is obtained.

Yes, Arabic is right-to-left language. I have modified the existing
style
sheet to reverse the direction. I noticed that not every thing is ok
when
reversing direction especially in forms. Now, first I am concerned

about

displaying Arabic characters even if the direction is still
left-to-right.
Till now I couldn't do that as mentioned above.


Regards,
Bashir

Bashir,

Is Arabic a right-to-left language? If yes, then you can either

modify
the

existing style sheets to reverse the direction or you can leave the
existing
style sheets alone and cascade a "right-to-left" style sheet that

reverses

the
direction.

I have done some experiments with reversing the direction in OFBiz.

Let
me

know
if you need any help.

I am trying to start with translating OFBiz to Arabic. I tried one
properties
file. At first I was not able to enter Arabic characters into that

file

until changed the property file to support utf-8. It was ok then to

enter

Arabic characters in the properties file but in the browser the

result

was
that the labels were not showing in Arabic. It was a kind of garbage
words.
I also tried to build a simple Ofbiz application in Arabic like that
shown
in the hello world tutorials but the same problem existed. Also it

seems

that every character in Arabic was displayed in the browser in three
strange
characters. The direction is still left to right. I just want to

display

Arabic characters on the browser.
