Description Zayed Al-Saidi 2009-11-08 05:16:53 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

The KDatePicker widget does not correctly display in RTL mode, the cells in the table go LTR instead. 

For detail see: bug #182976

John, I would like to rewrite the rendering of KDateTable to fix more issues it has (rounding problems, font size problems, and rendering speed on updates).

One question that remains is the content of the day cells. Are they guaranteed to be two digits wide? If not, how can I compute the widest possible cell? Current code re-adjust the size hint during rendering, which looks like a hack...

Cool.  So have you started this already?  Is this for 4.4?  If so I'll be happy for you to include this too.  I was just about to start on it as I've finished the Plasma one, and was thinking if I needed to simplify the date to/from position calculations like I did in Plasma.

I think it is safe to assume 2 digits per cell, I can't think of any common Calendar System we'd support with more than 30-something days in a month.

Christoph, did you make any progress on this, or should I attempt a bug fix for 4.5?
