--- Comment #14 from Isarra <[email protected]> --- Krinkle, I appreciate that you apparently didn't consider my previous arguments rational, but in light of the lighting concern, I still would argue that not flipping shadows doesn't make sense design-wise. Amir probably makes the main point that if the layout of rest of the interface expects the shadows to be a certain way (and if shadows are a significant part of it chances are it will) then the shadows should be flipped too. But for specific concerns about the light source, if there is a light source prominent enough that the directionality would matter that much with regards to it, chances are there's something wrong with the design in general. Such overly skeuomorphic designs can be cute, but rarely do they work well, especially for websites. That's not to say they can't work, however - but if someone does want to do that, they will need to add rtl-specific/noflip definitions for other pieces of the page like paddings, margins, etc anyway for precisely the reason Amir brought up, so the same can and should be applied to the shadows. Not having shadows flip is an unexpected and unnecessary inconsistency. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
