Go to settings-> languages

Choose hebrew

Page should flip to RTL mode, but it stays in LTR

I can see that rtl css is being loaded:


<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/web/content/95-2fa133e/rtl/web.assets_common.css" data-asset-xmlid="web.assets_common" data-asset-version="2fa133e">

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/web/content/96-d949b86/rtl/web.assets_backend.css" data-asset-xmlid="web.assets_backend" data-asset-version="d949b86">


but the page is still displayed LTR

Notice the install instructions:


For languages with right-to-left interface (such as Arabic or Hebrew), the package `rtlcss` is
needed:

#. Download and install `nodejs <https://nodejs.org/en/download/>`_.
#. Install `rtlcss`:

.. code-block:: doscon

C:\> npm install -g rtlcss

#. Edit the System Environment's variable `PATH` to add the folder where `rtlcss.cmd` is located
(typically: `C:\\Users\\<user>\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\`).


This should be done before you install Odoo

It works also after you install but in such case u should change some CSS to force the CSS to recompile

I checked it in one of the runbot instances and it seems to be working fine. You can check one of the running runbot instances at:

https://runbot.odoo.com/

I was not able to login to the runbot `You do not have access to this database or your invitation has expired. Please ask for an invitation and be sure to follow the link in your invitation email.`

U are correct, it does work in the runbot... but still doesn't solve the problem when installing from github

Elia Weiss

I did a diff on the CSS and it seems that the CSS on my installation is not RTL, and the runbot css is RTL

unfortunately I cannot paste the screen image to show it

It seems that some files that creates the RTL css is missing on my installation since I search for `.oe_module_icon` and it appears only in 1 file and is set to `float: left;` while in the runbot css it is set to `float: right;`

This explain the problem, the question is: how to solve it?

Elia Weiss

in runbot, it seems that the file `web.assets_backend.css` is generated in a different way when using RTL .

although both cases reference `base/static/src/css/modules.css` the `float` is somehow changes from `left` to `right`

I found the following:

For languages with right-to-left interface (such as Arabic or Hebrew), the package `rtlcss` is

needed:

#. Download and install `nodejs <https://nodejs.org/en/download/>`_.

#. Install `rtlcss`:

C:\> npm install -g rtlcss

#. Edit the System Environment's variable `PATH` to add the folder where `rtlcss.cmd` is located

(typically: `C:\\Users\\<user>\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\`).

Tried it both on windows and in Ubuntu 18 (Docker) and still not RTL

Hi Elia:

This seems to be working fine in Odoo 14. Try clearing your browser cache and see if it fixes the issue.
