radTextBox Arabic support

[alphonse joseph]

Hi,
    I would like to know whether I can enter arabic language in radTextBox.  We have web forms where some  entries should be in English and some in Arabic.  I can do it by changing  the language in the language bar.    Is it possible to do the same by changing some properties of the radTextBox so that users do not have to  change language in the language bar.

Hi, Alphonse

The RadTextBox accepts Arabic entry but you can not control the type (English, Arabic or other) through properties of the the control. However you can limit the allowable value as described in the following document:

Thanks.

Hi Hus,
    Well Hus, so you mean we have to change language in the language bar in order to enter Arabic text in radTextBox, no other options!

Hello alphonse,

Yes, we are not aware of any other means of entering text in languages different from the current client language. Except for copy + pasting some text in another language, of course.

Best wishes,
