Enum values

Content

enum val Content : TextDirection

This value indicates that the text direction depends on the first strong directional character in the text according to the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm. If no strong directional character is present, then androidx.compose.ui.unit.LayoutDirection is used to resolve the final TextDirection.

• if used while creating a Paragraph object, androidx.compose.ui.text.intl.LocaleList will be used to resolve the direction as a fallback instead of androidx.compose.ui.unit.LayoutDirection.

ContentOrLtr

enum val ContentOrLtr : TextDirection

This value indicates that the text direction depends on the first strong directional character in the text according to the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm. If no strong directional character is present, then Left to Right will be used as the default direction.

ContentOrRtl

enum val ContentOrRtl : TextDirection

This value indicates that the text direction depends on the first strong directional character in the text according to the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm. If no strong directional character is present, then Right to Left will be used as the default direction.

Ltr

enum val Ltr : TextDirection

Always sets the text direction to be Left to Right.

Rtl

enum val Rtl : TextDirection

Always sets the text direction to be Right to Left.
