Writing direction

I would like to know whether it is possible to set the writing direction to right to left (eg for Hebrew).

I can see that you can type in Hebrew and the letters are entered right to left and the punctuation is placed in the right places.

There are options  with right clicking the mouse to set the writing direction right to left.

But on setting the writing direction any text entered is left aligned

Any preview is also left aligned (and the punctuation comes out as if the text is set to left to right).

Is the right to left writing direction not supported fully with MMC?

    Victor,

    Thanks for writing. Composer respects the system settings as far as language goes. I can add an option to set the editor pane alignment to right aligned (currently you can choose justified which may be better for you temporarily until right alignment is available).

    The preview respects whatever CSS you have applied (either via metadata or Style Themes)-- you can change it however you like.
