That explains why it displays RTL without any issues. Except for the TextInput prompt text, wich still uses StyleableTextField. I tried the app on an iPad 3 and indeed there is no performance issue, the lists scroll rather smoothly etc. This means spark label can be used at places, when there are not too much text, and when you don't need the "text shadow" effect. But I did other tests with an app that displays lot more of text, using spark Label, and the result was very bad (1-4 fps) So, in the most general case, I think it's better that StyleableTextField knows how to display in RTL. I will continue in that direction, and that will also fix the prompt text issue.

I'm using Spark Label. In the renderers i'm using Spark Labels as well. and in the buttons i'm using spark label as well :-) As I said before i don't have any issue with performance.
