Hi Ori, after investigating a little, it seems that RTL is not supported in Flex mobile apps: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/mobileapps/WS19f279b149e7481c698e85712b3011fe73-7fff.html#WS19f279b149e7481c7c94ce7c12b30152f48-7ffc Specs: http://sourceforge.net/adobe/flexsdk/wiki/Mobile%20Text%20Components >http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS02f7d8d4857b1677-165a04e1126951a2d98-7ffe.html > >http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS02f7d8d4857b1677-165a04e1126951a2d98-7ffd.html >
This is because for performance reasons, mobile apps use TextField and subclasses, which do not support bidi, wherease FTE/TFL does. However, doing some more tests shows that RTL alphabets (Arabic or Hebrew) can actually be displayed, but RTL layout is not supported. This is to say that it's not just a problem with TextInput prompt text. It's the whole thing that is not working. Do you get the same behavior in your app? That being said, I think RTL support in mobile apps could be fixed, but it requires some work. You could open a "New feature" JIRA on that (Support for RTL layout in mobile app) and vote on it.
