| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| LeftToRight | Indicates that content should flow from left to right. | |
| RightToLeft | Indicates that content should flow from right to left. |
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.
