Description Safa Alfulaij 2016-06-26 12:42:15 UTC 
In RTL layouts (Arabic for example): when you hover over the classification (Utilities, Games, Office, etc.), the selection isn't placed on the right-aligned phrase, but aligned to the left.

Reproducible: Always

It seems that the whole applet doesn't support RTL layout :)

I found a solution
but because I not KDE Developer I can't apply it

you just need to add LayoutMirroring.enable for RTL in 
plasma-desktop git, applets/kicker/package/contents/ui/DashboardRepresentation.qml in the mainItem (Row 113)

and a UI suggestion (I try it on LTR lang)
right/center align the categories column - its look much better that way (see  the next attachments comments)
