I was happily surprised to find Open Office 2.0 installed in a few
computers in my faculty's library. However, the Formatting toolbar
does not have the Right-To-Left and Left-To-Right buttons enabled (NOT
the text align buttons, those are enabled, but rather the language
direction buttons). I click on the dropdown arrow and select the RTL
and LTR buttons, and they appear for a second and disappear again.
Also, in the Cusotmize Toolbar dialog I enable the buttons, and they
appear checked, but never show up on the toolbar itself. These
computers are running Windows XP Professional in the English language,
but they are Hebrew enabled (I can type and view Hebrew documents just
fine).

Thanks in advance for any ideas about how to enable the RTL and LTR
buttons. In the meantime, how do I change a paragraph from LTR to RTL?
I thought that it would be in the Format -> Paragraph dialog, but
there is no relevant option in any of the tabs there.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
