Container Control

Processing of the Container control messages in the PM Bidirectional environment is the same as in the Non-Bidirectional PM environment. However, the Container control is sensitive to its Bidirectional attributes and handles formatting and presentation accordingly.

The container supports all text Bidi attributes. This support is done in a hierarchy so that every level (class) of container sub-levels inherits the container attributes by default. These defaults attributes may be overridden by a Bidi-Aware application.

The bidi attributes hierarchy of the container controls works as follows:

The above inheritance chain defines the effective bidi attribute that is used in processing of a container object.
