I'm trying to build a mobile app that supports both LTR and RTL locales, but I keep running into problems. The latest is that when I set the prompt in a TextInput to some Hebrew text (which should be RTL), it works fine on the AIR emulator but on my Android phone. Here's my code:
<s:TextInput id="mainTextInput" prompt="הכנס מילה" change="handleTextChanged()" width="100%" locale="he_IL" textAlign="right" /> On the AIR emulator, it works fine, but on my Nexus 4 running Android 4.4 Kit Kat, the characters are backwards, so the prompt says "הלימ סנכה". If I type into the TextInput though, it works perfectly fine. It also works if use `text="הכנס מילה"` instead of `prompt=`, so I assume the prompt is using a different type of component. I've played around with the direction and layoutDirection properties to no avail. Does it make sense that the main text would work but not the prompt?...
