FlowDirection Enumeration
Defines constants that specify the content flow direction for text and user interface (UI) elements.
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)
The flow direction of content typically corresponds to the innate flow direction of the language being represented. Hebrew and Arabic provide examples of languages that naturally flow from right-to-left. English, German, and Russian provide examples of languages that naturally flow from left-to-right.
The following example shows how to use the FlowDirection enumeration to set the FlowDirection attribute of a flow content Block element (Paragraph).
<FlowDocument> <Paragraph FlowDirection="LeftToRight"> This paragraph will flow from left to right. </Paragraph> </FlowDocument>
The following example shows how to use the FlowDirection enumeration programmatically.
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
