How to force JTable to NOT invert text in the case it contains arabic characters?
arabic, idn, java, jtable, swing
Solution
At a guess, your default `Locale` is giving the default renderer a `ComponentOrientation` that is inconsistent with your other settings. You might try creating a custom renderer having the preferred orientation using one of the approaches suggested here.
Addendum: `java.text.Bidi` supports bidirectional reordering; you may be able to use unicode format control code points, as suggested in this Q&A.
Problem
I have the following text: وزا.word But when displaying it on my JTable it looks like this: word.وزا In every JLabel or TextArea or any other input it does look like the original text: وزا.word ONLY on the JTable I am having such problem. I do not care if it is making sense or not, and yes I know the Arabic Language is written from right to left. My guess is Java is detecting it and automatically inverting it, but I do not want it to. Note: I have no idea what وزا means, and for practical purposes I don't care. It's also irrelevant for this case wether وزا.word does not make sense and word.وزا does or viceversa. Note 2: The text, reversed or not is always aligned to the left (as I expect it to). Thanks in advance.
