[pedroOliveiraptc]

Hey guys congrats for the work.
i am facing a problem since ios12 and the new version that you guys release, my textfield in rtl break alignments as you can see above,

Do you already face this issue ? On iOS 11 and old version of the framework I don't have problems.
Thanks.

Hey @pedroOliveiraptc, Thank you. Can you try the development branch, and let us know if the issue persists. If so, please send a reproducible issue so we can investigate it. Thank you!

Hello the placeholder its ok, but the input text and the component line it self are not aligned.

@pedroOliveiraptc Can you share the code for us to achieve the same result on our computer?

@pedroOliveiraptc You have following line:

UIView.appearance().semanticContentAttribute = .forceRightToLeft

It makes some changes internal to UITextField:

From: #WWDC15 App Frameworks

We give padding as much as the height of the textField if leftView has non-nil value. Since leftView is swapped with rightView internally when you have .forceRightToLeft, accessing leftView returns non-nil value (value of rightView) therefore we add padding. You workaround this by setting rightView to nil:

let textField = TextField()
textField.rightView = nil // so that when it gets swapped with leftView, leftView still stays nil

Actually we don' support RTL yet, so we don't test our framework against such cases.

btw, you can use development branch, it has cool updates such as Theming (#1115) and Dialog (#1173) :)

@OrkhanAlikhanov I created an issue for us to support RTL. #1179, let's follow that issue for the RTL feature.
