Hi,
I am using the FormDecorator in the master page.
In one of my pages, I have 2 checkboxes.
One of them need to be dir=rtl.
The problem is that when the page loads, I can see that the checkbox is ok (rtl) but after the FormDecorator occurs, it change the checkbox back.
The code for the checkbox is:
m_CheckBox.Attributes.Add("dir", "rtl")
or
m_CheckBox.Style.Add("dir", "rtl")
How can avoid the changing back issue?

Hello Itai,
RadFormDecorator supports one direction at a time - right to left or left to right. To have both direction to a single page you should use two form decorators with decorated zones. The following code gives a simple example how to do that:
I have set two different skin to the formdecorators in order to make the difference more obvious.

Thanks for the answer, but it is not helping.
The page is dynamic, so I cannot know what controls will I have at the end.
Is there any other solution to solve this issue?

Hi Itai,
Could you please explain in more detail your specific scenario, because we are not sure what exactly are you trying to achieve? The FormDecorator cannot decorate RTL and LTR controls at the same time, and that's why you should use separate instance for each set of elements. Note that the DecorationZone can be set in the code-behind. You could also dynamically decorate controls using the decorate(parentHtmlElement) client-side method.
Another option is using RadButtons instead of decorated checkboxes. Here are two checkboxes, one in RTL and the other in LTR direction:

hi,
our pages are generated from XML.
it looks something like:
<Controls>
<ControlID='txtFirstName' text='..' ...../>
<ControlID='txtLastName' text='..' ...../>
<ControlID='chkLeft' text='..' ...../>
<ControlID='chkRight' text='..' dir='rtl'...../>
.
.
.
</Controls>
so when rendering the page, I cannot know if there are any checkboxes or radio buttons, and if there are, what direction text they use.
in all the other controls I can add something like that:
and it works fine.
The only problem is in checkbox and radio button.
And I cannot use buttons as checkbox/radio button

Hi Itai,
Please, note that the FormDecorator itself is a control and it can also be created dynamically. Therefore what you can do is, when your rendering encounters a control that should be decorated and should have direction: rtl, then wrap the control in a container, assign it an id and create a FormDecorater with DecorationZoneID equal to the id of the container.
Following the above described paradigm I have prepared for you a sample page that demonstrated this approach.
Hope this helps.
