We have a small application that will be localized world-wide. I have
everything set up so that the application correctly mirrors (flips from
left to right to right to left). My issue now is how do I determine if
the Window's regional setting are set so that my application should be
Right-to-left mirrored. Looking at System.Globalization, it is trivial
to determine what region we are operating in, but I would prefer to not
have to maintain a database of what regions need flipped and which ones
don't. Is there any way in C# to determine if the local Windows
platform requires mirroring like Arabic and Japanese?
 
You can include the Control.RightToLeft property in your resource files...
Since the resource files will be localized, each form can be mirrorred
case-by-case.
 
Something you may want to look at is the
SystemInformation.MidEastEnabled property.
