Change Windows Locale to Israel\r\n2. Start Spyder 3. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expected Spyder GUI to be normal and not RTL, and usable! \n\nPlease provide any additional information below\n\n. I'm a windows user (don't kill me, it's for the lab!). My windows is plain Windows 7 Pro in English, the only \"hebrew/RTL\" setting I have is that windows regional settings.\r\nThere is no reason at all for Spyder to be RTL, it makes no sense! It'll only make sense if the entire interface was in Hebrew, but even that would have to be an option (that nobody will use :)).\r\n\r\nThis issue was reported 2 years ago but was closed because there is a possible work around: https://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/issues/detail?id=679 While I'm currently also using the work around (changing the windows settings), this is problematic as there is a reason why it should be set to Israel, it governs several other parameters (and other programs use it).\r\nThe other solutions given in that old bug report did not work for me.\r\nThe interface should either be normal LTR all the time, or it should be an option in the settings, It definitely shouldn't change according to that windows settings.\r\n\r\nThanks\r\nYoav\n\n**Attachment:** [Spyder GUI RTL.PNG Windows format RTL.PNG](http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/issues/detail?id=1806)\n\n_Original issue: http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/issues/detail?id=1806_"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/comments/74747763","html_url":"https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/1806#issuecomment-74747763","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/1806","id":74747763,"user":{"login":"spyder-issues-migrator","id":11021581,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/11021581?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator","html_url":"https://github.com/spyder-issues-migrator","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/spyder-issues-migrator/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-02-17T20:34:47Z","updated_at":"2015-02-17T20:34:47Z","body":"_From [Yom...@gmail.com](https://code.google.com/u/103304440173453314457/) on 2014-05-01T06:07:16Z_\n\nBy the way, you can also note that while my entire windows interface is in English, in the 2nd picture see the \"Ok/Cancel/Apply\" buttons, In Spyder these buttons are in Hebrew..."}}
