Description Omeritzics 2021-08-02 10:27:32 UTC
SUMMARY
When running KDE applications on Windows, the user interface is in LTR even when using RTL languages.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Windows (and not Wine or ReactOS)
2. Install and open a KDE application for Windows.
3. Switch to a RTL language (Hebrew, Arabic, Persian, etc.)

OBSERVED RESULT
The user interface is in LTR even when using RTL languages.

EXPECTED RESULT
The user interface should be in RTL when using RTL languages

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This bug happens only on Windows, and not on other operating systems (as far as I know).

Please move this bug to any one of those apps where this happens.

and reopen it. This is not the right place.

OK, Now I'll move this bug back (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435165).
This bug was moved before, because this bug is not in a specific application - it is in almost each KDE application.
