[Solved] Right to left sheet

Post by flyingfalafel »

Hi!
In past installations, I was able to change the sheet direction to Right-To-Left (in my current version 4.1.7 it's @ Format -> Sheet -> Right-to-Left). However, this option is now grayed out and I can't understand why or how to turn it back on.

Thank you!!

I assume you are talking about sheets in Calc - the spreadsheet application?

Go to Preferences | OpenOffice | Language Settings | Languages and select the option Show UI elements for Bidirectional writing. For non-Mac users, go to Tools | Options rather than Preferences | OpenOffice.
