Remarks

The Direction property specifies the direction in which to display controls that include text in a panel control.

The Direction property is set using one of the ContentDirection values. The following table lists the possible values.

If you specify LeftToRight, child controls that include text display from left to right. If you specify RightToLeft, child controls that include text display right to left. Use RightToLeft to display text for languages that are written from right to left, such as Arabic or Hebrew.
