My system language is English and my Windows is usually left-to-right (LTR) oriented.\r\nUp until now, I used Python(x,y)-2.6.5.6 and Spyder worked perfectly.\r\nRecently, I switched from to Python(x,y)-2.6.6.1 (including full uninstall of the previous version)\r\nAfter Installing it, Spyder decided to become partially right-to-left oriented.\r\nThis is super-annoying. I tried to look for a way to revert it back but haven't found. Is it an option in the program? a bug? Something in the GUI modules? What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect a normal Spyder GUI\r\nI get a GUI where each panel/sub-window is right-to-left: folder trees are opposite, tabs are on the wrong side, toolbars start from the right etc.  the highlight occurrences is especially strange\r\nI'm attaching a screenshot. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Spyder 2.0.11 on Windows 7\n\n**Attachment:** [screenshot.png](http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/issues/detail?id=679)\n\n_Original issue: http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/issues/detail?id=679_"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/comments/74597580","html_url":"https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/679#issuecomment-74597580","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/679","id":74597580,"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":"2015-02-17T00:38:33Z","updated_at":"2015-02-17T00:38:33Z","body":"_From [Tsvi...@gmail.com](https://code.google.com/u/106253277170290105150/) on 2011-09-22T08:40:34Z_\n\nThanks for the advice.\r\n\r\nI haven't tried this solution yet, so I can't say if it's working, but assuming it is,  I wanted to point it to the developers that, IMHO, it's a problematic workaround rather than a good solution. Changing this setting to English change things like the currency symbol and the date format, which are unrelated, and which I don't want to change.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, Since most programs don't behave like this (become RTL when 'Region and Language' = 'Hebrew'), I think it's an unwanted behavior that should be removed. Especially considering it's not a normal RTL user-interface, but a messed-up one.\r\n\r\nIMHO, it will be much better to understand where does the code look at the value of 'Region and Language', and eliminate it from there, leaving only the normal and working LTR user-interface. Since it must be in something that have changed from version 2.0.5 to version 2.0.11, I hope it's something that's no so hard to find."}}
