maybe you can do something with bmp2rgn.dll like how the gui skins were made recently.

check this site,

Mirroring is a term used to specify right-to left (RTL) layout, which identifies how text and GDI objects are laid out in a window. Therefore, it gives a perfect right-to-left (RTL) look and feel to the UI. For Windows 98 and Windows Me, this technology was only available on Arabic enabled and localized operating systems. However, on all Windows 2000 varieties and later, are already mirroring aware. Mirroring is in fact nothing else than a coordinate transformation.

Quick example.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

$gui = GUICreate ("Mirrored Test", 400, 300, -1, -1, BitOR ($WS_CAPTION, $WS_SYSMENU), $WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL)
$label = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("THIS IS A TEST WITH NON MIRRORED TEXT", 10, 10, 250)
GUISetState ()

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg ()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

try this code which make the from from right to left Mirror

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

;Global Const $WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL = 0x400000
;This style sets the layout to RTL. Therefore, the horizontal origin is the right edge and increasing horizontal value would advance to the left.
Global Const $WS_EX_NOINHERITLAYOUT = 0x100000 


#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
;BitOR($WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL,$WS_EX_RIGHT,$WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE,$WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW)



;$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 633, 441, 193, 133, -1, $WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL)
$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 300, 300, 193, 133)

;$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 633, 441, 193, 133, -1, BitOR($WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL,$WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW))

$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Label", 10, 10, 61, 20)

$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button1", 10, 60, 137, 57, 0)
$Checkbox1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Checkbox1", 10, 200, 265, 41)


;$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 633, 441, 193, 133, -1, BitOR($WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL,$WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE))


GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

Also try this for Msgbox  "not list on help files"

; Mirrored Msgbox

Msgbox (0x100000,"Test Mirror", "This is a Mirrored Msgbox")

; Alignment to Right

Msgbox (0x080000,"Test Right to left only", "This is a Right to left text only")

Hi

1- the flag 0x100000 is not listed on the help file, i discovered it by trial and error.

Msgbox (0x100000,"Test Mirror", "This is a Mirrored Msgbox")

2- Mirror tech. is so important for people like me who writes Arabic scripts “Right to left”
