c# - Is there any way to determine text direction from CultureInfo in asp.net?

Question

I have looked around, but I have been unable to figure this out, some languages are read and written from right to left, instead of left to right. It seems like a no-brainer to be able to get the text direction from the CultureInfo object somehow, but I have not seen it anywhere. Am I missing something?

Answer 1

System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.TextInfo.IsRightToLeft

This will return true if the current culture is read from right to left.
