UITextField wrong rtl alignment with latest version

[rami965]

Here is a screenshot for the representing the issue:

What I tried:

• Update to latest version 1.2.3
• Install via cocoapods and carthage
• Set Arabic as default language in AppDelegate
• Setting the textfields alignment to natural
• Remove the Arabic localization and add it again

Note that I'm using a navigation controller and the rtl is working fine except for text fields.

I have same issue, did you find a solution for this ?

I'm trying to think of a solution, but until I find a solution, you can handle that in your BaseTextField by doing something like this:

 func updateTextAligment() {
  if(isRightToLeft) {
    self.textAlignment = .left
  } else {
    self.textAlignment = .right
  }
}

@Abedalkareem This is my solution if it helps: I added an extension for NSTextAlignment

import LanguageManager_iOS

extension NSTextAlignment {
    static var defaultAlignment: NSTextAlignment {
        return LanguageManager.shared.currentLanguage == .ar ? .right : .left
    }
}

Usage

myTextField.textAlignment = .defaultAlignment

@rami965 why everyone thinks that Arabic is the single language with RTL?
