Description

TBiDiMode specifies the reading order (bidirectional mode) of a control.

TBiDiMode determines the reading order of the text, placement of the vertical scrollbar, and any alignment modifications. It is used to tailor the user interface for locales where text is bi-directional.

The following table describes the possible values:

Value	Meaning
bdLeftToRight	Reading order is left to right. Alignment is not changed. The vertical scroll bar appears on the right edge of the control.
bdRightToLeft	Reading order is right to left. Alignment is changed. The vertical scroll bar appears on the left edge of the control.
bdRightToLeftNoAlign	Reading order is right to left. Alignment is not changed. The vertical scroll bar appears on the left edge of the control.
bdRightToLeftReadingOnly	Reading order is right to left. Alignment and scroll bar are not changed.
