Description

Hi,

Please see the attached..

The Editor control in UWP does not accept RightToLeft even if you set it directly to the control

I have noticed other controls as well having the same problem, all on UWP.

Thanks, Jassim

Research direction
Inspect the UWP renderer for Editor in Xamarin.Forms source code. Trace the FlowDirection property handling to identify where the RightToLeft setting is ignored.
