[Request] RTL support about invoiceninja

[turbo124]

@Zontex

I'm not sure this could be executed, The best solution for this would be to create a client/group setting for your RTL clients and set your RTL design as the default design for those clients.

@Zontex we manage our translations here, you can join up and adjust the translations as necessary

@Zontex if you are referring to the PDF's and RTL support, you would need to use css helpers which would enable this.

Within the UI of the application rtl is not supported.

Hi thanks for your reply, yes this is exactly what I mean. is there any instructions available on how to do so?

[turbo124]

@Zontex

these types of CSS properties are available:

p.rtl {
direction: rtl;
}

Got you, thank you so much for the quick response! any plan to make it integrated option? once changed to RTL language such as Arabic/Hebrew it will automatically change the PDF/UI view?

I changed the invoice successfully to this CSS:

But I still haven't figured out how to RTL the entire UI. when I do RTL on the body, it breaks the UI. any suggestion?

@Zontex

RTL is super tricky, and it is not something I am familiar with at all.

For this to be supported, the invoice designs would need to be customized to suit with the correct CSS implementation.

This would be a task best suited for a user whose language is RTL, I am happy to assist however in getting the designs updated.

I sent here the correct design for the invoice, confirmed it's working. multiple places need to update the RTL. I'm wondering if there is anyway within the framework to say something like IF hebrew then use RTL template, if not use normal template..?

[turbo124]

@Zontex I see your design creates a complete mirror image, including reversing the columns of the invoice table. Is this the way RTL is support to work?

[Zontex]

@Zontex

I'm not sure this could be executed, The best solution for this would be to create a client/group setting for your RTL clients and set your RTL design as the default design for those clients.

That's a brilliant idea. Then I can leave the UI in English and serve Israeli clients with RTL portal/invoicing. will dig deeper into it. I suggest to leave this ticket open, i'll get this all working and push updates perhaps others Arabic/Hebrew needs could be served with this information.

[Zontex]

@Zontex I see your design creates a complete mirror image, including reversing the columns of the invoice table. Is this the way RTL is support to work?

Yes it's exactly the way RTL work. RTL is Right-to-left, everything is the opposite. If you keep English or any other non-rtl language, it will look weird, but in RTL it looks perfect.

[Zontex]

@turbo124 There are many localization fields missing, how can I localize Hebrew? I guess as updates went, some fields hasn't been updated. would love some guidance on where to get the latest english file so I can localize it completely to Hebrew

[Zontex]

@Zontex

I just tested your advice it works completely well. I opened a group called it "israeli clients" and then created a template for each thing: portal, invoice etc... with RTL called it "invoice rtl" or "portal rtl" then assigned the template to that group.

@turbo124 Quick update regarding RTL exploration:

I managed to perfectly design the portal to RTL based on the user group using the following code:

    left: auto;
}

.custom-rtl .tooltip .arrow::before {

    border-left-color: transparent;
}

.custom-rtl .popover .arrow::before {
    border-right-color: #fff;
    border-left-color: transparent;
}

Now the last issue that seems I can't resolve is the main dashboard. if I create an account to login to Invoice ninja with RTL language by default, I dont see a place where I can inject custom CSS code into the dashboard object? in the portal by injecting the code I could fix all the portal dashboard, any chance to put a priority into adding css/javascript custom code injection on the dashboard based on a specific user / user group?

[turbo124]

The front end implementation would need to have the react code modified.

@beganovich is there an easy win to support RTL with the react UI?

[hillelcoren]

Note: the desktop/mobile app supports RTL for Arabic, I assume it can be enabled for other languages as well.

For me the desktop app still shows LTR (same as web), didn't try the mobile yet. I changed the Arabic in the desktop app also shows LTR, how does it show RTL for you? I'm using OSX desktop app

[hillelcoren]

That's the web app, here are links to the desktop app.

No it's the Desktop APP for OSX, I just took a screenshot from inside
