Symptom
The new Assessment tool does not support right to left alignment for Arabic/Hebrew locale. System still pushes the Arabic exam format to the left alignment even after using an Arabic locale.
Environment
SAP Successfactors Learning
Learning Management System (LMS)
Reproducing the Issue
1.Login as an admin to LMS
2.Navigate to Content >> Assessments >>Search for an Exam>>Preview in Arabic locale >>It is displayed in left to right alignment
Cause
The right to left alignment is controlled by the user's selected locale (regardless of the language within the assessment)
Example : If the user has selected locale as English in his/her preferences, and the quiz locale is selected as Arabic, the quiz will appear as below:
The admin side does not support RTL alignment.
Resolution
The right to left alignment is controlled by the user's selected locale (regardless of the language within the assessment).Only the user side will have the RTL alignment provided the user's locale is selected as Arabic in his/her preferences.
Example 1: If the user has selected locale as Arabic in his/her preferences, and the quiz locale is selected as Arabic, the quiz will appear as below:
Example 2: If the user has selected locale as Arabic in his/her preferences, and the quiz locale is selected as German, the quiz will appear as below:
NOTE: The RTL alignment only applies to the user side and is not available for the admin side and this is working as expected.
At this time, the LMS Admin-side is not fully RTL compliant. Therefore we should not be using Admin side of the application in Hebrew or Arabic.
