Enum

TextDirection

Controls the base text rendering direction for TextLabel, TextButton, and TextBox instances.

Controls the base paragraph direction used when laying out text. Used by TextLabel.TextDirection, TextButton.TextDirection, and TextBox.TextDirection, which default to TextDirection.Auto.

TextDirection.Auto lets the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm determine the paragraph's base direction from the first strong directional character. TextDirection.LeftToRight or TextDirection.RightToLeft pins the base direction regardless of content, which is useful for mixed-script strings where automatic detection would choose the wrong base.
