I have an application that uses the CXTPStatusBar which contains various controls such as text panes, images and a progress control. When this statusbar is displayed upon program start, regardless of language type, everything is perfect.

If I change the language type from a left to right language style to a right to left language style (such as English to Saudi Arabia) all the extra items are not displayed correctly. If I exit and restart the application, everything is then displayed correctly.

Is there some special function that must be called for the CXTPStatusBar when the language display type is changed? I checked the MultiLanguage and ScribbleMultiLang examples, however neither has additional controls.

Hi,

How do you switch RTL mode? Do you set WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL for all items in statusbar?

I use the same logic as the toolkit MultiLanguage langManager.cpp and the respective code in mainfrm.cpp. I did verify that WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL was set in all child windows by a routine in the langManager.cpp.

You can see this problem by simply adding a few panes, etc. from the toolkit Statusbar example to the MultiLanguage sample.
