Many kanji use Chinese stroke order #6

Kanji that use the 糸 radical ask for it to be written in Chinese order. The Japanese order is bottom middle > bottom left > bottom right, but the Chinese order is bottom left > bottom middle > bottom right. The same is true for kanji that use use ネ as a radical, where it uses the Chinese equivalent 示 instead. I'm sure there are more instances as well.

In kaisho style (楷書体), the Japanese order for the bottom of the 糸 radical is left, middle, right (not middle, left, right). And hanzi-writer characters are written in kaisho style.

Some Japanese kanji have 示 (and not ネ) as radical too. For instance : 視祝禎 etc.
