Is there an easy way to swap left/right panes so that the right pane would show on the left in an rtl environment? Looking at the demo, https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/splitter/right-to-left-support, the left pane is always on the left and the right pane is always on the right.

 

For example:

Left-To-Right layout: [Left] [Right]

Right-To-Left layout: [Right] [Left]

Hi,

This is a documented limitation of the splitter (see the third item in the list): https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/accessibility/supporting-rtl-languages#known-limitations.

You can, however, use jQuery to determine if RTL mode is necessary, and move the elements in the DOM and reverse the panes in the collection before giving them to the splitter initialization function. Here is an example I made for you: https://dojo.telerik.com/@bratanov/EdEXexUp. Of course, depending on the situation, you may be able to render the pane elements in the different order from the server and avoid this potentially expensive DOM operation on the client.
